PS5 Pro: Two Editions and Release Date Details
Exciting news has surfaced regarding the upcoming release of the PS5 Pro, as leaked marketing material has revealed key details about the console. The highly anticipated mid-gen upgrade from Sony has been a hot topic of discussion, with rumors and speculations running rampant. Today, at 8 a.m. PT / 11 a.m. ET, we are finally set to receive official information about the PS5 Pro. However, some crucial information has already made its way into the spotlight.
Known leaker billbil-kun, who previously leaked the accurate design of the PS5 Pro, raised questions about the console potentially only having a digital edition due to the absence of evidence for a disc edition. Enter BrianTheInsider, a user on Reddit who has been sharing insider information about the PS5 Pro since August. Much of the information provided by BrianTheInsider has now been verified.
According to BrianTheInsider, the PS5 Pro may have two editions with staggered release dates. The digital edition is expected to launch first on November 14, possibly varying by region, while the disc edition is set to release around December 5. This timeline may explain why only the digital version was confirmed by billbil-kun recently.
Price-wise, BrianTheInsider has suggested a £499.99 price tag for the digital model and £589.99 for the disc edition. While conversion rates may fluctuate, these prices roughly equate to $500 for the digital version and $600 for the disc model based on Sony’s pricing history.
In addition to the edition and release date details, the insider also mentioned that the PS5 Pro will come bundled with a DualSense controller featuring enhanced triggers and improved battery life. Furthermore, the console will support HDR10+ and Dolby Vision on select streaming platforms and physical media.
