The PS5 Pro will be announced in mid-September and will likely hit store shelves sometime during the holiday season, according to The information was provided by. who has Very good track record To leak upcoming games and devices.
Here’s what the leaker revealed. Take all of this with a grain of salt, because it’s not from Sony. First and foremost, it will actually be called the PS5 Pro. That was assumed, based on the PS4 Pro, but we don’t have any actual naming details. The user claims to have access to the packaging design, but didn’t feel comfortable sharing copyrighted images. Instead, they drew a schematic of the packaging, as seen below.
As you can see, the design is similar to the PS5 Slim, in white. We don’t know if it will be available in any other colors besides white. It appears to have three black lines in the middle, which is a new design element. These lines could also act as cooling vents, but again, we don’t know.
The leaker also doesn’t know if the console will have a disc drive, though it’s expected to ship without one in order to cut costs. It’s also unclear if there will be two versions of the PS5 Pro, one with a disc drive and a digital-only version.
Adidas x PS5… (No, just kidding) 😅

Here is the final design of the PS5 Pro with many other details including:

The report also suggests that the console will ship with the same standard DualSense controller that came with the original PS5 and PS5 Slim. However, the leaker did not provide any information regarding the internal specifications. In other words, we are still (mostly) in the dark about the “Pro” part of the PS5 Pro.
To that end, there have been other leaks that hint at the device’s power. Back in March, a YouTuber leaked official Sony documents detailing some of the device’s specs. The document is believed to be legitimate. IGN and other sitesHowever, the video has since been removed at Sony’s request.
The video notes that the upcoming console will feature the same CPU as the standard PS5, but there will be a “high CPU frequency mode” that pushes the chipset by ten percent to 3.85GHz. It’s also noted that the GPU will support 33.5 teraflops versus 10.28 teraflops in the standard PS5.
This doesn’t mean the PS5 Pro will be three times better at rendering than the regular PS5. There have been recent changes to AMD’s architecture that make it difficult to directly compare teraflops between the PS5 and PS5 Pro, The leak indicates a 45 percent increase in supply.

Anyway, it looks like we’re just days away from an official announcement from Sony. Hopefully, the PS5 Pro won’t be the best option.
