There's a broad consensus in the game industry that the PlayStation 5 Pro is indeed launching in the second half of the year, making it a great piece of hardware for the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI, according to a well-known analyst.
As reported by CNBC, analyst Serkan Toto spoke about the launch of the console, saying, "There seems to be a broad consensus in the game industry that Sony is indeed preparing a launch of a PS5 Pro in the second half of 2024." The console's launch will also line up perfectly with the release of Grand Theft Auto VI, which will be a "shot in the arm for the entire gaming industry."
As the PlayStation 5 Pro has yet to be officially announced, little is known about the system. While the console is rumored to sport a Zen 2 CPU that may not bring massive performance improvements, many consider it the best choice for various reasons, including keeping the console's price reasonable. Also, a stronger CPU may not be needed to squeeze more performance out of the system, as it will seemingly support AI upscaling, a first for consoles.

They say you don’t know what’ll work until you try it out, and that’s been a staple of the gaming industry for decades! Between arcades, consoles, handhelds, and everything in between, publishers and developers have tried anything and everything to get people to come to their systems and try out their stuff.
