As we head into a new year, the leaks and rumors on PS5 Pro continue to make rounds on the internet. PlayStation users are hoping for an official announcement from Sony in the upcoming CES 2024. Unfortunately, the wait’s going to extend further according to a reputed industry insider.

If the latest update from this leaker is anything to go by, PS5 Pro won’t be announced at CES 2024. That’s definitely going to make hardcore fans upset. Will this affect the chances of the model releasing during the second half of this year? Further, when can players really expect a PS5 Pro announcement?

Here’s when fans can expect a PS5 Pro announcement

Popular industry scooper Tom Henderson recently dropped a post on social media platform X. While sharing his thoughts on the hype around PS5 Pro and a possible announcement at CES 2024, he wrote that it will be surprising to see “if they (Sony) were to announce a new console 9-10 months from release if that’s the timeline they are still going with.” He, on the other hand, believes PS5 Pro might be revealed during late Q3 period in 2024.

In short, all the fans who were expecting to see the upgraded hardware in early 2024 may have to wait longer than usual. Going by Tom’s prediction, PS5 Pro might be announced towards the end of September 2024.

However, that’s just a speculation right now. Players should take this update with a grain of salt unless Sony officially shares any crucial update. This also means the device won’t be unveiled at CES2024.

Rumor: PS5 Pro to Support 144Hz, but Will It Be Enough to Make GTA 6 Play Smoother?

Talking about the specs of PS5 Pro, it’s rumored to be a solid improvement over the regular PlayStation 5 model. But certain insiders have suggested it might not be powerful enough for few of the biggest AAA titles, such as Rockstar Games’ GTA 6, releasing in the future.

According to convincing leaks, it’s supposed to have AMD’s Neural Processing Unit (NPU). The speed is expected to reach a maximum of 4.6 GHz aided by an eight core, 16-thread Zen 2 CPU. Overall, it will be a solid boost of about 27 percent, helped by an impressive GPU upgrade.

The device is said to offer a significant amount of enhanced ray-tracing too. Compared to the existing model, it will give the players more immersive experience when it comes to exploring virtual worlds in different titles. Given the fact that ray-tracing has become a crucial aspect in modern games, it’s seen as a rendering technique that can actually give a realistic lighting effect.

Also, there are rumors predicting about the 8K gaming support as well. Currently, the PS5 offers 4K performance at a nice resolution. On the other hand, PS5 Pro might take things on to a different level with a dedicated ‘performance mode’ for 8K resolution – but not at a whopping frame rate of 120 FPS. That’s something one should definitely not expect it to deliver at all.
