Will there be a PS5 Pro? Release date rumours and predicted specs

Even though the PS5 Slim hasn't been out long, it looks like Sony is in the process of working on an even newer version of its current gen console.

There have been plenty of leaks and rumours, and more speculation than one human could digest. From 8K resolution, to the dreaded digital only status, internet voices have been loud about the PlayStation 5 Pro.

There's a faint banner in the background which shows Sony's various gaming hardware since then, but there's a mysterious new design among them.

The closest we have to an official comment, however, is from Hideaki Nishino, Sony's senior vice president of platform experience, who was asked about the future prospects for the PS5 similar to the PS4 Pro by Famitsu in December 2022. «We believe that cumulative sales will exceed 37 million units by the end of fiscal 2022, and
