Sony has confirmed the PS5 Pro release date and we won’t have to wait long to get the most performant Sony games console.
The PlayStation 5 Pro release date is Thursday, November 7, 2024 in the US, UK, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea, according to the official PlayStation blog post.
Pre-orders for the mid-generation console begin on September 26.
Also confirming the PS5 Pro price, Sony has said the new system will cost $699.99 / £699.99 and around AU$1052.99.
As well as confirming the release date, Sony also gave us a first look at the new console. You can see some pictures of it below.
It has a more blocky design compared to the curvaceous base PS5 console, and looks to be about the same size too – though we’ll confirm this when we receive more information. It looks like the PS5 Pro will continue the white aesthetic of this generation of Sony machines, and also might feature swappable panels like both the base PS5 and PS5 Slim.
These first looks also confirm a few features too. From the images, we can clearly see X USB-C ports on the front, as well as X USB-C and USB-A ports on the rear. There’s also the usual power port, HDMI port, and ethernet port present.
While some will continue to debate the need for such a mid-gen upgrade, there’s no doubt that a new console is always one of the most exciting times in gaming and we’re absolutely here for it.
For a recap on what Mark Cerny revealed, here’s the full Technical Presentation on YouTube.
