Sony Unveils $700 PlayStation 5 Pro

Sony has officially revealed the long-rumored mid-generation upgrade model for the PlayStation 5, the PlayStation 5 Pro. Set for release on November 7 at a price point of $699.99, the upgraded model, styled like the 'slim' PS5 but with a triple groove design, will be available only in an all-digital version compatible with Sony's existing add-on optical drive. The console boasts a larger GPU and faster memory, delivering 45% faster rendering than the base PS5. It also features advanced ray tracing at double or triple the speed and an AI-driven upscaler for improved resolution and clarity.

Several games, including 'The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered' and 'Horizon Forbidden West,' will receive enhanced versions for the PS5 Pro. A new Game Boost feature aims to improve performance across the entire PS5 and backward-compatible PS4 libraries.
