PlayStation 5 Pro: Renowned analyst sets release period

According to Sony, the PlayStation 5 is now in the second half of its life cycle, but before the PlayStation 6 reaches us, the PlayStation 5 Pro will be released first. One of the most renowned analysts is now setting a release period for the more powerful console.

In the past there have been plenty of rumors about a more powerful model of the PlayStation 5, which will supposedly be called the PlayStation 5 Pro – Sony had already done a similar thing in the last generation of consoles with the PS4 and the PS4 Pro. While Sony itself now sees the PlayStation 5 in the second half of its life cycle, the PS5 Pro is now intended to provide a breath of fresh air before the release of the PlayStation 6.

With Serkan Toto, CEO of Kantan Games, one of the most renowned and well-connected analysts in the video game industry has now spoken out on the topic and given his forecast as to when the PS5 Pro can be expected. Opposite CNBC He explained that the more powerful console will most likely appear at the end of 2024 – just in time for this year’s Christmas business.

Toto shares what is probably the most common insider opinion on the release period of the PlayStation 5 Pro, which has not yet been officially announced, because most experts in the industry are putting the new Sony console in the end of 2024. It is not unlikely that they are right – after all, the numerous such rumors were right last year regarding the PlayStation 5 Slim.

While Sony is not planning any major first-party releases within the next twelve months, in this case the PS5 Pro would be available in time for the next big blockbuster in the gaming industry: Grand Theft Auto VI. The title from Rockstar Games recently slipped out of the first quarter of 2025 and will therefore most likely appear after a supposed release of the PS5 Pro. Open-world action fans will probably be able to stock up on a more powerful platform by then, unless Sony fundamentally changes its plans.

There had already been speculation about the technical features of the PS5 Pro last year; We will of course keep you up to date on further developments!
