That PlayStation 5 Pro will become a reality is something almost everyone takes for granted. Sony’s next-gen console refresh aims to be conservative, perhaps with the intention of saving as many cards as possible for the future. It is already known that the less the current generation develops, the more room there is for the next.

The latest information or rumors about the PlayStation 5 Pro come from the channel Moore’s Law is Dead, who in their latest video revealed some of its alleged basic characteristics and the price of a model without an optical disc reader, which could be about $500 Americans. It’s important to keep in mind that in the United States the prices are without taxes, so it is likely that the console will exceed 600 euros when it arrives in the Eurozone.

Regarding the expected technical characteristics of the PlayStation 5, we would find a machine with a conservative approach, but which could provide some interesting things compared to the models already presented. For starters, the maximum operating speed would be set at 4.4 GHz, compared to 3.5 GHz for the models sold. The number of computing units would rise from 36 to 60, the memory bandwidth would rise from 14 Gbps to 18 Gbps and An XDNA 2-based NPU would be added for AI processingsomething not present in the current PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S.

Another point of interest is the release date, which remains unknown at the moment. Moore’s Law is Dead says that AMD expects the PlayStation 5 Pro to be launched during Christmas 2024 take advantage of the data in which the video game industry sells the most, but it is likely that Sony is holding its cards and waiting for what Xbox announces tomorrow, and if some Microsoft exclusives are confirmed to launch for PlayStation and Nintendo, it is possible that this will cause a shift in Sony’s strategy and plans.

In short, there are more unknowns than answers regarding the PlayStation 5 Pro, but the inclusion of an AI processor could be an interesting addition that could help in aspects such as scaling technologies, which will likely be very necessary to keep the console generation alive. which lag significantly behind PC.
