The PS5 Pro is official.<\/p>\n

After months of speculation, Sony has confirmed the launch of a more powerful\u2014and significantly more expensive\u2014version of its hugely popular PlayStation 5 console. In a pre-recorded presentation streamed live on PlayStation\u2019s YouTube channel on Tuesday, the lead architect of the PS5 console, Mark Cerny<\/strong>, described the device as \u201cthe most powerful console we\u2019ve ever built.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything you need to know about the new console coming with a hefty price tag.<\/p>\n

When Is the PS5 Pro Launch Date?<\/h2>\n

The PS5 Pro will launch on November 7, with preorders beginning on September 26.<\/p>\n

How Much Will the PS5 Pro Cost?<\/h2>\n

The PS5 Pro will retail for $699.99, compared to its predecessor, the PS5, which launched in November 2020 at $499, with a digital-only edition priced at $399. In European markets, the console\u2019s price is also disproportionately higher, set at \u20ac799.99.<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

The new PS5 Pro appears to be sold without some of the basic features that came with the base model, such as the internal UHD Blu-ray disc player and the vertical stand, both of which are now sold separately, further increasing the overall cost beyond the recommended retail price.<\/p>\n

What Are the Features of the PS5 Pro?<\/h2>\n

Cerny introduced the major features of the newest iteration of the console, referred to as \u201cThe Big Three.\u201d According to PlayStation\u2019s description of the PS5 Pro, the Big Three consist of:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Upgraded GPU:<\/strong> The PS5 Pro features a GPU with 67% more Compute Units than the current PS5 console and 28% faster memory, enabling up to 45% faster rendering for smoother gameplay.<\/li>\n
  • Advanced Ray Tracing:<\/strong> The PS5 Pro includes more powerful ray tracing capabilities, providing more dynamic reflection and refraction of light, with rays cast at double or even triple the speed of the current PS5 console.<\/li>\n
  • AI-Driven Upscaling:<\/strong> The PS5 Pro introduces PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution, an AI-driven upscaling technology that uses machine learning to deliver ultra-sharp image clarity by adding a significant amount of detail.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Sony is also including a PS5 Pro \u201cGame Boost\u201d option, which applies to over 8,500 backward-compatible PS4 games.<\/p>\n

    \u201cThis feature may stabilize or improve the performance of supported PS4 and PS5 games,\u201d said Hideaki Nishino<\/strong>, CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment\u2019s platform business group. \u201cEnhanced Image Quality for PS4 games is also available to improve the resolution on select PS4 games.\u201d<\/p>\n

    The first PS5 Pro Enhanced games will include Alan Wake 2, Assassin\u2019s Creed Shadows, Demon\u2019s Souls, Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Gran Turismo 7, Hogwarts Legacy, Horizon Forbidden West, Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man 2, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, The Crew Motorfest, The First Descendant,<\/em> and The Last of Us Part II Remastered<\/em>.<\/p>\n
