Nov 7, 2024, 17:39 IST
Sony has officially launched the PS5 Pro today and the console, as per early reviews, comes with some major performance upgrades. A couple of days before the launch, PlayStation, in a new blog post, announced that over 50 PS5 Pro enhanced games would be available on launch day. With the launch of the new console, early reviews have also started coming in and people are talking about the new toy in town on social media. Read on to know all about the new console and how it seems to fare so far.
The PS5 Pro is priced at $699.99 in the US which is roughly Rs 59,000 when converted to INR. The new console promises to provide amazing graphics at higher frame rates. The PS5 Pro maintains the familiar design of the PS5 and is compatible with existing PS5 accessories, including the PlayStation VR2 and DualSense Edge controller. However, it has launched as a disc-less console, with the option to purchase an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive separately.
When it comes to performance, the PS5 Pro is said to get a massive graphical boost over the OG PS5. It brings a significant upgrade in visual fidelity through Advanced Ray Tracing, which delivers more realistic reflections, shadows, and lighting effects for a heightened sense of immersion in games. This, combined with PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), an AI-driven technology that enhances game resolution without sacrificing frame rate, promises that players enjoy smoother gameplay and sharper graphics even under demanding conditions.
This dual approach aims to push the console’s performance, catering to players who appreciate intricate visual details in their gaming experience.
The PS5 Pro also introduces Wi-Fi 7, offering faster, more stable internet connections in supported regions.
Here are some reactions:
Sony is yet to announce the official launch date of the PS5 Pro in India. When the PS5 launched globally in November 2020, it came to the Indian markets in February 2021. It remains to be seen if Sony will follow a similar release pattern in India or we will get to experience the new console earlier than expected.
