After a very complicated first two years, Sony and the PlayStation 5 have finally resolved the manufacturing issue, and the consoles can be obtained everywhere. Preparing for the release of GTA 6 in 2025, Sony could be releasing a PS5 Pro, according to some very important industry analysts. Sony admits that the PS5 is entering its final stage in its life cycle.

The console has more than three years on the market; the average duration for a console generation is about 7 years, so this is half of the life expectancy for this product. The PS4 Pro was launched in 2016, three years after the release of the PS4.

In the last generation of consoles, a new kind of business was introduced. Both Xbox and PlayStation released a more powerful version of the base console, the PS4 Pro and the Xbox One X. This kind of thing was never seen in any past console generation.

The slimmer versions and console design change, but never the hardware. According to new and very reliable sources, PS5 Pro could be coming in the second half of 2024. This kind of move makes sense for Sony because the majority of current titles could not achieve more than 60 fps, and GTA 6 is coming next year.

Serkan Toto, the CEO of Kantan Games, a very popular consulting agency from Japan, has declared on CNBC that in the second half of the year, Sony will launch some kind of PS5 Pro. Toto continued talking about how Sony has to be prepared for the launch of the most anticipated game of the last few years, GTA 6, which will be available sometime in 2025.

The PS5 has not made the profit that Sony estimated due to the manufacturing issue at the beginning and COVID-19, which has not helped the console have the best launch possible.

Some specs from the PS5 Pro were leaked, and the information points out that the GPU will almost have double the power in comparison with the AMD RDNA 2-based GPU that the normal PS5 has. But there is no confirmation that these details are real, so you have to wait until Sony releases the technical specifications of this console.

The PS5 is a very powerful and fast console, but the performance of some games has not met the expectations of players. Most of the titles cannot achieve more than 60 fps; this is something that almost any PC can achieve with many games. Sony is looking for this improvement.

Tell us what you think about the PS5 Pro.
