Rumors have it this event will announce the PS5 Pro. I know the PS5 has been out for years now but does anyone feel like a pro version might be unnecessary? Current gen games already look great and run fine*
*When they’re actually optimized
Honestly, if this means that the “quality” modes run at 60fps+ (and 4K but we’ll see) then I may be on board.
The 40fps middle ground right now isn’t that bad, but I’d rather it be better.
We’ll see.
It is unnecessary.
Honestly, it’s pretty far into the PS5’s lifecycle at this point. I think a PS5 Pro this late into the current generation would be a bad move, because a PS6 is undoubtedly around the corner in just a few years and will effectively obsolesce a PS5 Pro, anyway.
If they released a Pro version last year, that’d make more sense. But unless Sony’s expecting this generation to stretch out longer than normal, this just doesn’t seem like a good idea.
PS5 came out in 2020, PS6 is expected in 2028 or ’29. We’re right at the half way point. Seems about just right really
