Sony’s next-gen console would have offered more details so far than the rumored PS5 Pro model.
We are entering the third year of the current generation of consoles and 2023 seems to be called to be the course that exploits the full potential of PS5 and Xbox Series X | S. After a really difficult start due to the lack of supplements and the shortage of stock, in any other generation we would already be preparing the arrival of a Pro model that was able to extend the benefits of the machine. In relation to PS5, the possible arrival of a model that mixes the two current ones is discussed, although rumors about PS5 Pro continue to be the order of the day. Nevertheless, a well-known industry insider has taken it upon himself to deny them.
And it is that according to the sources that Tom Henderson manages, we shouldn’t expect a PS5 Pro this generationat least in the near future, since what will be released soon will be a kind of version 2.0 of the current consolewithout improving its performance. In fact, Henderson claims that Your informants tell you more about PS6 than about a Pro model of PS5. This revelation is not surprising, since when one generation starts, the company is already thinking about the next, but it is shocking that Sony is focusing so much on the next machine without thinking about an intermediate model for the present one. .
As for if there’s going to be a Pro version this generation, I’m not entirely sure. It doesn’t feel like the regular version has been fully utilized yet and probably won’t be on mass until the end of the year. All I can say is that I’ve heard more about the PS6 than a PS5 Pro.
