It's time to see what surprise PlayStation has in store for the future, with its PS5 Technical Presentation broadcast. Will we see a PS5 Pro? Or will it be something unexpected? Find out now, because the 9-minute livestream is kicking off now. We'll be summarizing the event as it airs, to stay tuned.

Cerny kicks off by going back to the PlayStation 5's launch, detailing the hardware in the system, and how it was an improvement from the PlayStation 4. Graphics, sound, haptics.

Developers have been wanting more, though. Having to choose between fidelity and performance mode has been an issue. Performance mode has been 75% more popular.

He casually drops PS5 Pro's announcement.

A larger GPU, advanced ray tracing, AI-driven upscaling, and more.

This improves the framerate performance for current PS5 games, with higher quality graphics.

He claims it's double the power of PS5.

We get to see a showcase of better graphics and smoother framerates in first-party PS5 games.

Ray-tracing has seen a large upgrade. Better reflections, shadows, and background details.

​

November 7 launch, for $699.99.

Confirmed separately on the PlayStation Blog was the fact that the system will NOT be launching with a disc drive, which you'll be able to buy separately for $79.99.

And the EUR region gets the short end of the stick with the pricing...

Literally no way this will sell... It's like Apple's screen holder or stylus, all hyper-expensive for what they are.

But your picture is a joke.
A bad joke, almost as bad as the PS5 Pro.

It's for people that saw The Office, which you obviously did not.

But admittedly the PS5 comparison pics were not great, but people said they couldn't tell the difference when they first showed them on the actual video.

Forget it.

If you look at the replies, people are laughing at how the two images look the same. Should have used that image. Google downsamples other websites images. It was just for a dumb joke not that important.

Can I post a pic for comparison?

So the Pro version will have twice as many polygons as the Pleb version? I can't count that high so I don't really care.
Some people care and they will be willing to pay premium for it.
Others can just stick with the regular version, I highly doubt it's being discontinued any time soon.
It might even get some kind of price drop.
Yes, $700-800-900-however much it will cost around the world is a lot, but people are going around buying $1500 handheld PCs and $1300 phones, to each their own.

Yes exactly. Especially tell that to people who buy like $2000 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max

Not for me.

To enjoy the ps5pro, that would mean that I would also need an 8k TV with it. Are there particular ones needed in order to have a proper framerate in gaming?
So let's say I buy a ps5pro (800 EUR) and a TV (1300 EUR ?), that would leave me at 2100€. And I would not have to sit too far from the screen to enjoy the high rez, like, max 2 meters?
Is that a realistic calculation?

Then of course, I would only have 1 controller yet, no games except the ones that I already have in my digital collection from ps4 and PSplus. Quite the hardware investment, if you ask me! And then of course I would like to have more controllers, a compatible Fighting Stick (though there might be a way to buy an adapter for the Venom Mayflash f 500?) and eventually PSVR2, so there's a couple 100 EUR more coming my way.

That, or I could buy a regular PS5 or even refurbished by Sony and pay around 500 EUR with two controllers, and go on a nice holiday trip with my family. OK, that one leaves out the better TV, but still.

I was not aware how much modern mobile phones cost.
