Expected by many gamers, The new iteration of the PlayStation 5 is still not officially real, But the increasingly frequent rumors given by journalists and analysts close to the Japanese company make a 2024 arrival credible.

What we know so far

Technical specifications and improvements
At the moment all the possible specifications that have been released must be taken with a grain of salt as there is no official information, rumors indicate that the PS5 Pro could offer graphics performance of up to 33.5 teraflops, almost three times more powerful than the PS5 standard. In addition, it is speculated that it will include a scaling technology similar to DLSS from Nvidia, called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), to optimize the most demanding games.
Other potential improvements include a 45% increase in raster performance and 28% faster memory speeds than the original PlayStation 5 model. There’s also talk of a “high CPU frequency mode,” which would allow for a 10% increase in overall system performance.

This would follow the same launch scheme for previous brand products, where the PS4 Pro was launched practically a year later in Colombia, Mexico, Chile and Argentina.
Regarding the price, in the case of Colombia, the PS5 Pro could arrive for a price close to 4 million pesos if a similar exchange rate is maintained. An exorbitant value but in perspective, it is similar to what the original PS5 had between 2021 and 2022 in the country.
