Islamabad, Aug 28: The gaming community is buzzing over Sony’s much awaited PS5 Pro once more, even though the firm has not yet revealed an official launch date. Conversations in the industry lately, especially from developers and industry insiders, suggest that the upgraded console might be released sooner than expected.
According to Wccftech, new evidence from Gamescom 2024 indicates that PS5 Pro specifications have already been disclosed to game developers. The speed of the system is anticipated by many in the industry to be significantly faster than that of its predecessor, the normal PS5, when running Unreal Engine 5.
An unusual development was provided by the Italian gaming news outlet Multiplayer, which further fueled the speculation. They told of meeting a developer who chose to delay the release of their game, citing the new console’s imminent arrival as justification.
Industry rumors state that the new console will provide a remarkable 45% boost in rasterized rendering power. Faster memory components and a more potent graphics processing unit (GPU) are supposed to be the sources of this increase.
The ray tracing technology upgrade on the PS5 Pro is one of the most talked-about features. This sophisticated rendering method, which emulates how light behaves in real-world situations, is about to undergo a major update.
The rumor about the PS5 Pro’s purportedly unique machine-learning architecture is one of the more interesting ones. It is claimed that this specialized hardware can process up to 300 TOPS (Tera Operations Per Second) of 8-bit computation.
Expected to support Sony’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaling technology is this potent feature. By improving image quality without further taxing the console’s rendering power, PSSR may provide players with the best of both worlds: fluid gameplay and breathtaking sights.
Although the exact release date of the PS5 Pro is still uncertain, there are rumors that the system will be unveiled in September and go on sale in stores in November. This timetable is designed to be consistent with the PS4 Pro.
On the financial front, early estimates place the PS5 Pro’s price tag in the range of $600 to $700.
