PlayStation 5 Pro Specs Are Being Shared With Third-Party Publishers – Rumor

Amidst fervent anticipation for GTA 6, fans are buzzing with excitement over the prospect of the game becoming a benchmark for the forthcoming PS5 Pro console. Although neither Sony nor PlayStation has officially acknowledged the existence of the rumoured hardware, esteemed journalist Tom Henderson recently stirred speculation by affirming the validity of the device, hinting at a potential release later this year, just in time for the holiday season. This revelation, coupled with previously leaked specifications of the PS5 Pro, has ignited speculation among GTA 6 enthusiasts, who believe the console could offer an unparalleled gaming experience for the highly anticipated title.

Yesterday, YouTuber Moore's Law Is Dead detailed the specifications of the PS5 Pro console in a new video. As our readers know all too well, Moore's Law Is Dead doesn't exactly have a perfect track record when it comes to hardware leaks, thus causing many to doubt the veracity of the leaked specs.

Confession time: I already have a copy of Final Fantasy XVI and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for the PS5 even though I still don't have a PlayStation 5 console. I never get consoles the moment they come out and usually wait a few years for their next version. In the PlayStation 5's case, I thought it was going to be the PS5 Slim, but it looks like I could have another option by the end of the year: The PlayStation 5 Pro. Tom Henderson of Insider Gaming says the PS5 Pro details leaked by the Moore’s Law is Dead YouTube channel came from documentation Sony itself recently sent to third-party developers.

It's been a little while since the PlayStation 5 launched, and as we come up to the console's fourth birthday, talk of a PlayStation 5 Pro releasing later this year has been circling. We've had several rumors about an improved PS5 model coming soon, reportedly codenamed Project Trinity, though quite how it could meaningfully improve upon the base PS5, which is already a pretty impressive console, was up in the air.

Some tasty PS5 Pro specs have leaked out into the wild, and the console is allegedly set to feature its own upscaling tech. Dubbed Spectral Super Resolution, the tool will seemingly work similarly to the likes of DLSS and FSR, but Sony apparently thinks it’ll produce better results than AMD’s GPU feature.  

The PlayStation 5 Pro rendering is said to be about 45% faster than the base model, and its ray tracing performance double to triple that of the original console, according to rumors circulating online.

Apple is on the fast track to introducing an entry-level version of the Apple Vision Pro headset, potentially slicing off a whopping $2,000 from its original price tag. While the wait for a second-generation release may extend into 2025 or 2026, Apple is far from idling in its pursuit of a more budget-friendly mixed reality headset.

The PS5 Pro performance shouldn't be expected to be double the framerate in GPU-limited scenarios over the base model based on specs alone, according to a recent analysis.

Microsoft is likely debating the future of Xbox consoles, as the market is rapidly changing, making launching new hardware more difficult and expensive, according to Xbox and EA's former boss.

AI upscaling is set to be deployed starting this year in AMD's gaming devices, which include the yet-to-be-revealed PlayStation 5 Pro and PlayStation 6.

Sony has confirmed March 2024’s PlayStation Plus Essential games.

The PlayStation 5 Pro rumored AI upscaling feature will run on the console's GPU, as the APU powering the system has no neural processing units, according to a known leaker.
