PS5 Pro Rumors Ignite Online Buzz

Sony may have implicitly acknowledged the existence of the much-rumored PS5 Pro during celebrations for PlayStation's 30th anniversary. All credits go to some very observant PS enthusiasts!

Sony Might Have Quietly Introduced the PS5 ProIf You Look Closely, You'll See It on Their Website

In a PlayStation Blog post earlier today, fans noticed what appeared to be a new PS5 design subtly included in an image shared by Sony on the website. The illustration of the console bore a striking resemblance to leaked images of the PS5 Pro that surfaced recently.

The discovery was made by an observant fan who spotted the illustration in the background of the 30th Anniversary logo on Sony’s official website. The image has since caused speculation that Sony may be planning to unveil the PS5 Pro soon, possibly at the end of this month. While Sony hasn’t officially confirmed a State of Play event for the announcement, rumors are swirling that the much-rumored console will be revealed alongside a major event later this month.

Meanwhile, Sony is making a significant effort for PlayStation's 30th anniversary festivities. Gamers can participate in special events including a free trial of Gran Turismo 7, digital soundtracks from classic PlayStation titles, and "create memorable moments" with their new "Shapes of Play" collection. Shapes of Play will debut in December 2024, via direct.playstation.com in the US, UK, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Benelux.

There’s also a free online multiplayer weekend and esports competitions planned for September 21 and 22. "During this period, you can enjoy online multiplayer for games you own without needing a PlayStation Plus subscription, on PS5 and PS4 consoles," Sony stated, with further information anticipated shortly.
