it’s been three years since PS5 hit the shelves and took the world by storm and it might not be too long before its successor will hit the markets and push the established limits. With new reports claiming that Sony has reported plans of releasing PS5 Pro, internally named Project Trinity, around mid-2024, the reported specs for the model make it sound like an absolute beast.
The reported Trinity codename follows Sony’s tradition of naming their projects after the popular Matrix franchise, with codenames for PS4 Pro and PSVR being Project Morpheus and Project Neo respectively. And it seems Gaming studios might be receiving their development kits by November 2023.
Gaming studios to receive PS5 Pro development kit by the end of 2023
It isn’t something new for studios to receive development kits ahead of a console’s release, as it helps in various factors, including better optimizations of their titles for the new hardware. With reports claiming that developers are referring to the PS5 Pro hardware as the “kits of mid-life upgrades,” it will be interesting to see how the studios will take advantage of the upcoming gaming beast’s specification.
Reports suggest PS5 is going to be capable of glorious 8k gaming with its reported 30 WGP (workgroup processor), 18000 mts memory, and accelerated ray-tracing. Fans will also be able to enjoy steady fps at 4K resolution, and the price range for the upcoming console might hit a range between $770 to $900 upon its release.
PS5 Slim is expected to hit the shelves this year
Like PlayStation 4, users might also witness a slimmer version of PS5 by the end of 2023. Microsoft too claimed there might be some weight behind this rumor, and for players who are still yet to make a jump to the next generation and aren’t a big fan of PlayStation 5’s looks, this might be their shot. In terms of technical capability, unlike reports regarding Project Trinity, the slim edition might not witness any improvement and will cater to an audience who has limited space in their entertainment center.
Although nothing can’t be said for sure as of now, experts believe the price for the alleged PlayStation 5 Slim might hit around $400, which will put it next to the digital version.
With fans anticipating the next big leap in gaming, the reported Trinity Console might push the bar to the next level, which gamers haven’t seen before. And if the above reports regarding the Pro version are true, it’ll definitely justify its expected price point.
