PlayStation may have unintentionally confirmed the design of its upcoming PS5 Pro.

A recent graphic in a 30th-anniversary blog post from Sony Group Corp. (NYSE:SONY) showcased a lineup of PlayStation console silhouettes, with one console in the center that fans quickly noticed was unfamiliar.

This design closely resembles a recent leak shared by insider Billbil-kun on Dealabs, depicting a PS5 Slim-like console with three distinctive stripes across the middle.

This alignment between the leaked design and Sony's blog post has fueled speculation that the PS5 Pro's launch could be imminent. With rumors swirling about a September unveiling, gamers may soon get their hands on this next-gen console.

PS5 Pro Release Date Closer Than Expected?

Though Sony has yet to officially announce the PS5 Pro, leaks suggest it could arrive as early as November 2024. According to a report from Insider Gaming, first-party developers have already been working with the console's development kits and third-party studios are expected to follow soon.

Some developers have been instructed to make their upcoming games compatible with the PS5 Pro hardware by mid-September, further adding to the belief that a reveal is just around the corner.

How Much Will The PS5 Pro Cost?

With the PS5 Slim currently priced at $499, analysts expect the PS5 Pro to come in higher, likely around $600, according to The Independent. This speculation is based on the console's rumored hardware upgrades, including a 45% faster GPU, improved ray tracing capabilities, and enhanced frame rates.

What Are The Upgrades For The PS5 Pro?

Leaked specs suggest the PS5 Pro will be significantly more powerful than its predecessor, with rumors pointing to a new AMD chip and improved cooling technology. The console is said to target smooth 60fps gameplay with ray tracing enabled, bringing a leap in graphical performance.
