A prominent industry insider has recently predicted that the unveiling of the PlayStation 5 Pro is likely to occur towards the conclusion of the third quarter of 2024. This projection follows closely on the heels of leaked potential specifications for the PS5 Pro, hinting at a more modest mid-generation hardware upgrade compared to the substantial enhancements introduced by the PS4 Pro in late 2016.
Despite purportedly sharing a similar internal configuration with the standard PS5, the PS5 Pro is anticipated to incorporate proprietary upscaling technology, reminiscent of Nvidia’s DLSS, as reported by Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb in mid-December. Grubb’s insights suggest that this software solution will empower the forthcoming console to surpass the performance capabilities of the base PS5 model. In the aftermath of this revelation, some enthusiasts have taken to social media, speculating that Sony might officially announce the PS5 Pro during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024, scheduled to take place from January 9 to January 12.
Tom Henderson, a recognized industry insider, challenges this perspective, expressing his disagreement in a recent social media post. On January 4, via Twitter, Henderson conveyed his surprise at the notion of Sony introducing the PS5 Pro during the January event, at least if the company’s release strategy for the console remains unchanged. Worth noting is Henderson’s earlier report, indicating that the gaming giant aims for a release of the PS5 Pro in the holiday season of 2024.

Expanding on this idea in a follow-up tweet, the industry insider emphasized his skepticism about Sony disrupting “up to 10 months of regular PS5 sales” by introducing the Pro version of the console at CES 2024. Consequently, he has inclined towards the belief that a more plausible scenario involves a late Q3 announcement for the PlayStation 5 Pro.
