Sony Might Have Soft-Launched the PS5 Pro
If You Squint Hard Enough, You'll See It on Their Website
In a recent PlayStation Blog post, fans with a sharp eye noticed what could be a sneak peek of a new PS5 design. This image, subtly tucked away on Sony's website, closely resembles the leaked images of the PS5 Pro that have been circulating online. The discovery was made by a vigilant fan who spotted the illustration behind the 30th Anniversary logo on Sony’s official site. This has sparked speculation that Sony might be gearing up to officially unveil the PS5 Pro soon, perhaps by the end of this month. Although Sony has not confirmed a State of Play event for the announcement, rumors suggest that the eagerly awaited console could be revealed during a significant event later this month.
As part of PlayStation's 30th anniversary festivities, Sony is rolling out a series of special events for players. Highlights include a free trial of Gran Turismo 7, digital soundtracks from iconic PlayStation games, and the launch of the "Shapes of Play" collection. This new collection, aimed at creating fun moments, is set to debut in December 2024 and will be available through direct.playstation.com in the US, UK, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Benelux.
Additionally, Sony has scheduled a free online multiplayer weekend and esports tournaments for September 21 and 22. "During these days, you can enjoy online multiplayer for games you own without needing a PlayStation Plus membership, on both PS5 and PS4 consoles," Sony announced, with more details to follow in the coming days.
