Last week Microsoft spoke openly about the future Xbox. As for Nintendo, there is talk of a delay in the marketing of the future Nintendo Switch 2. In addition, the Japanese company did not comment directly on the information, stating that “it is still working on new hardware.” And Sony? Rumors are making the rounds.

According to the information circulating, Sony is preparing to launch its future console. According to Serkan Toto, analyst at Kantan Games, and confirmed on CNBC, The PS5 Pro would be launched in 2024. This joins other statements in which November 2024 was already mentioned.

The goal? Make sure there's enough in stock for everyone right from the start, but also make sure the console is ready for flagship titles like GTA VI and Death Stranding 2.

A technology comparable to DLSS is also mentioned

If NXGamer's Moore's Law is Dead is to be believed, Sony is reportedly in the process of tweaking it Upscaling technology. Inspired by Nvidia DLSS, it allows you to play in low resolution before upgrading everything to 4K, all without compromising visual quality. This allowed us to run games in 4K at 120 FPS on the PS5 Pro.

The PS5 Pro would differ from its predecessor with several hardware improvements. It would retain the eight-core processor based on AMD Zen 2 architecture and come with 16GB of RAM. However, the real advances would be in performance, with higher processor clocks and faster memory.

The graphics chip, on the other hand, would benefit from a significant upgrade with 56 RDNA 2 processing units, compared to 36 processing units on the current PS5.
