Sony Interactive Entertainment has officially revealed the PlayStation 5 Pro, the latest evolution in its console lineup. 

Scheduled for launch on November 7, 2024, it is set to deliver the most visually advanced PlayStation experience to date at a price of $699.99 USD, £699.99 GBP, €799.99 EUR, and ¥119,980 JPY.

The PS5 Pro will feature a 2TB solid-state drive, advanced ray tracing, and AI-driven upscaling, promising gamers superior image clarity and faster performance.

The Pro console will have a set of key features targeted for the most immersive gaming experience. These include a GPU with 67% more compute units and 28% faster memory than the original PS5. This allows for up to 45% faster rendering, ideal for open-world titles like <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/marvels-spider-man-2/">Marvel's Spider-Man 2</a> and CD Projekt Red’s <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/cyberpunk-2077/">Cyberpunk 2077</a>. You can discover more PS5 games through the <a href="whatoplay.com/discover/">Game Finder</a>. 

This reveal also marks the console’s new PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution, an AI-based technology that sharpens image quality. As a result, this will deliver noise-free graphics on bigger screens, ideal for 4K and 8K settings. Additionally, Wi-Fi 7 compatibility ensures faster connectivity in supported regions.

More importantly, the PlayStation 5 Pro offers a range of AAA titles that will be optimized after its launch. Games like <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/final-fantasy-vii-rebirth/">Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/assassins-creed-shadows/">Assassin’s Creed: Shadows</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/demons-souls/">Demon’s Souls</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/games/alan-wake-ii/">Alan Wake 2</a>, and more will make good use of the console’s Fidelity and Performance modes. These games will carry a ‘PS5 Pro Enhanced’ label, making them look and play better than ever before.
