- Sony just unveiled the new PS5 Pro, which will become available in November.
- The new console combines more power and AI to address the trade-off between graphics and performance in the PS5.
- Those looking to buy the PS5 Pro will face an eye-watering $699.99 price tag in the US.
Sony launched the PlayStation 5 four years ago and gave gamers two options: run their next-generation games in Performance Mode, sacrificing graphic detail for smooth gameplay, or go with Fidelity Mode for image quality above all else. Having the choice is great, but having both is better — and that is just the solution that Sony is offering with the newly launched PS5 Pro.
In addition to Sony’s formal announcement, lead architect Mark Cerny explains what the new console brings to the table. And while features take the spotlight here, less focus is given to the price tag, which some might argue is hard to justify.
