Gamescom 2024 Whispers: PS5 Pro Launch Imminent?
The gaming world is abuzz with speculation following Gamescom 2024, where whispers about the PlayStation 5 Pro's release have reached fever pitch. Developers are reportedly discussing the console's specifications and adjusting release plans accordingly. Let's delve into the details surrounding this highly anticipated upgrade.
Gamescom 2024: PS5 Pro Dominates Developer Conversations
Rumors of a PS5 Pro have circulated throughout 2024, but Gamescom saw a noticeable shift. Developers, according to Wccftech's Alessio Palumbo, are openly acknowledging the upcoming console. Some have even delayed game launches to coincide with its arrival.
Palumbo reports a conversation with an anonymous developer who confirmed receiving PS5 Pro specifications and anticipates significantly improved Unreal Engine 5 performance compared to the standard PS5. This corroborates a similar report from Multiplayer, suggesting multiple developers are working with the new hardware. The fact that a smaller studio was involved implies widespread access to PS5 Pro details.
Analyst Predictions Fuel the Fire
Adding further credence to the speculation, analyst William R. Aguilar suggested on X (formerly Twitter) in July that a PS5 Pro announcement is likely before the year's end, potentially during a September 2024 State of Play event. This timing mirrors the PlayStation 4 Pro's release, which was announced on September 7th, 2016 and launched just two months later. Palumbo suggests this precedent makes a near-term announcement highly plausible. The implication is that Sony aims to announce the PS5 Pro before it significantly impacts sales of the existing PS5.
