There’s a reason why the PlayStation 5 has created such a huge fan base in the gaming community. Sony’s flagship gaming console is easily one of the most powerful machines out there. Along with that, the console also has a plethora of exclusive titles that make it a worthy possession. However, modern high-demand games can make even the PS5 stutter at times. Delivering low FPS isn’t something that doesn’t sit well with most gamers and now it looks like Sony is on its way to making things right. As per recent news, a PS5 Pro is in the works and may be available to fans soon.

The new “Pro” and “Slim” edition is expected to be more powerful, dishing out meaty FPS, and should be an excellent option for the avid gamer in you.

Are “Pro” PS5 and PS5 Slim on their way?

A post has surfaced on X announcing the new console and its features. While a PS5 Slim has been rumored for a long time, the recent news may be something even better. As per the post, developers Square Enix have the dev kit of the new PS5 Pro console. This indicates that the devs behind the popular series Final Fantasy may be testing their new game on the new console. If this is true, it will signify the incoming of not only a new PlayStation console but also a new game from the popular studio.

From what we know, the PS5 Pro will be priced at $499.99. The post also claims that more devs will have access to the dev kit of the PS5 Pro in the coming days. Hence, it probably won’t be a far-fetched assumption if we believe that Sony is looking to get back at the top of the console wars with a new, more powerful PlayStation console that promises 8K support.

Apart from PS5 Pro, another most anticipated release from Sony is going to be the PS5 Slim, which might be released on 2023 September. This amazing device is rumored to provide the best PS5 experience in a sleek and efficient design. PS5 Slim might have the potential to be an effective substitute for both the original PlayStation 5 and PS5 Digital edition. On top of that, you can expect to get it at a lower price as there will be no optical disc drive in the PS5 Slim.

Reasons for anticipating the release of PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim in 2023

If we dig a little into Sony’s PlayStation release history, there will be a concrete reason to assume the release of PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim by the end of this year. What’s the history saying? As per the record, the PS3 launched in November 2006 and the PS3 Slim appeared in September 2009. So, you see, there is a gap of three years. Similarly, the PS4 was released in November 2013, and in November 2016, we got the PS4 Pro. In 2016, Sony launched the PS4 Slim as well. So, what’s next? The probable release of PS5 Pro and PS5 Slim…isn’t it?
