Market experts recently interviewed by CNBC highlighted that there are signs that support the debut of the PlayStation 5 Pro this year.
For them, the manufacturer’s reliable sources, the growing rumors about the new hardware and the company’s default behavior Sony suggest that the new model could hit stores by the end of 2024. Serkan Toto, CEO of Kantan Games, highlighted to CNBC:
“Sony wants to make sure it has a good amount of hardware available when ‘GTA 6’ arrives in 2025.”
He highlighted how central the Rockstar Games title will be to the games industry’s strategy in the next fiscal year.
Repercussions of the announcement of Sony’s financial report
Analysts, when evaluating Sony’s statements after the presentation of its latest financial results, also noticed signs of the arrival of the PlayStation 5 Pro.
Sony suggested that it anticipates a drop in PlayStation 5 sales from the next fiscal year, between April 2024 and March 2025, as the console enters its final phase of its life cycle. According to analysts, this speech would signal the launch of the PlayStation 5 Pro.
Following the logic of the launch of the PlayStation 4, an updated version of the console could rekindle public interest and increase sales in this final phase of the console’s life cycle.
Price expectations for the PlayStation 5 Pro
However, there is not expected to be a price cut on the current hardware model. According to George Jijiashvili, from Omdia, Sony highlighted in its fiscal report the need to adjust the profit margin in the production of its video games.
Therefore, a reduction in consumer values seems unlikely. Although the company has not commented on the matter, experts predict that, if the PS5 Pro is launched at the end of the year, its announcement could take place in the coming months.
If the predictions are true, the public can expect news exciting soon.
