The buzz around the highly anticipated PlayStation 5 Pro has reached a fever pitch at Gamescom 2024, with developers and reporters sharing tantalizing details about the console's potential specs and release timeline. Dive in to discover what's being said about the PS5 Pro and what it could mean for gamers.
PS5 Pro: The Hot Topic at Gamescom 2024
Throughout 2024, the gaming community has been abuzz with rumors and leaks about the PlayStation 5 Pro. However, Gamescom 2024 has taken the speculation to a new level, with developers openly discussing the upcoming console. Some have even adjusted their game release schedules to coincide with the PS5 Pro's launch, as reported by Alessio Palumbo of Wccftech.
Palumbo shared a compelling insight: "Without even being prodded by me, a developer who preferred to remain anonymous mentioned they had received the specs for the PS5 Pro and were confident that Unreal Engine 5 would perform significantly better on the new hardware compared to the regular PlayStation 5."
This statement aligns with a recent report from the Italian gaming site Multiplayer, which revealed during a live stream that a developer had delayed their game's release to align with the rumored PS5 Pro launch. Palumbo added, "Considering the information shared by Multiplayer, I'm confident this isn't the same developer. Additionally, the studio I spoke with isn't a major one, suggesting that a wide range of game developers already have access to the PS5 Pro's specifications."
Analyst Predicts Imminent PS5 Pro Announcement
Adding credibility to Palumbo's insights and the developer discussions at Gamescom 2024, analyst William R. Aguilar hinted on X in July that Sony is poised to announce the PS5 Pro later this year. Aguilar speculated that the announcement might occur during the rumored State of Play in September 2024, emphasizing that Sony needs to act swiftly to prevent cannibalizing sales of the current PS5 model.
This timeline mirrors the release strategy of the PlayStation 4 Pro in 2016, which was announced on September 7 and launched on November 10. Palumbo noted, "If Sony follows a similar pattern, it is reasonable to assume an official announcement is near."
