Sony may have subtly confirmed the existence of the highly anticipated PS5 Pro during the celebrations for PlayStation's 30th anniversary. Kudos to the sharp-eyed PlayStation fans who spotted this!
Sony Might Have Soft-Launched the PS5 Pro
If You Squint Hard Enough, You'll See It on Their Website
In a recent PlayStation Blog post, eagle-eyed fans noticed what could be a new PS5 design cleverly hidden in an image on Sony's website. This illustration closely matches the leaked images of the PS5 Pro that have been circulating online.
The discovery was made by a keen observer who spotted the illustration in the background of the 30th Anniversary logo on Sony’s official site. This has sparked speculation that Sony might be gearing up to unveil the PS5 Pro soon, possibly by the end of this month. Although Sony hasn’t officially announced a State of Play event for the reveal, rumors suggest that the much-talked-about console could be introduced at a major event later this month.
As part of PlayStation's 30th anniversary celebrations, Sony is going all out. Players can look forward to exciting events like a free trial of Gran Turismo 7, digital soundtracks from classic PlayStation games, and the chance to "create fun moments" with the new "Shapes of Play" collection. Shapes of Play is set to launch in December 2024, available through direct.playstation.com in the US, UK, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Benelux.
Additionally, Sony has scheduled a free online multiplayer weekend and esports tournaments for September 21 and 22. "During those days, you can enjoy online multiplayer for games you own without needing a PlayStation Plus membership, on both PS5 and PS4 consoles," Sony announced, with more details to follow in the coming days.
