Since July 2023, there have been multiple reports claiming that Sony is developing an upgraded version of the PlayStation 5 (PS5), called the PlayStation 5 Pro (PS5 Pro). Today, we have another report about the company’s allegedly upcoming gaming console. This one comes from CNBC and reveals the launch timeline of the product.
It says that industry analysts have told the publication that Sony is planning to launch the PlayStation 5 Pro this year. According to the analysts, the company is planning to launch the new console to increase interest in the PlayStation 5 and to offer hardware that’s ready for the launch of the much-anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6).
The latest news comes right after Sony revealed that the company expects a gradual decline in the sale of the PlayStation 5 from the next fiscal year as the product has entered “the latter half of the console cycle.” Microsoft is also planning to launch two new gaming consoles by 2026, including a high-end one and a handheld, dockable one.
