The PS5 Pro release date is one of the big unknowns that we still haven’t managed to resolve. Very reliable sources, such as the well-known Tom Henderson, have been saying that the presentation of this console will take place between the third and fourth quarter of 2024, and that its launch would also take place before the end of that year.
It makes sense, especially after learning that Sony was going to return to the Tokyo Game Show after abandoning it in 2019. That return had to be justified by an important announcement, and as we told you recently, it was most likely due to the PS5 Pro presentationRealistically, there is no other announcement that Sony has pending that justifies the financial investment that it represents to return to this event.
The fact is that now Tom Henderson himself is questioning the information that he has been giving during the last few months, and has questioned whether the launch of PS5 Pro will happen this year. He has not gone any further, so his comment leaves many doubts that we cannot resolve. However, keep in mind that it is not an assertion, but a possibility.
Why Sony might delay PS5 Pro
First of all, I want you to be clear that delaying the launch of this console does not necessarily mean a delay in its presentation date, and as an example we have PS5. This console was presented in June 2020, but its launch did not occur until November of that same year, which leaves us with a five month difference between the presentation date and the launch date.
By this I mean that there is a possibility that Sony Take advantage of the Tokyo Game Show to present PS5 Proas planned, and that the launch of this console will not take place until the end of 2024 or even until the first quarter of 2025. Nothing is confirmed yet, so we must be cautious and consider all possibilities.
With this in mind, the big question we must ask ourselves is why would Sony delay the launch of this new console. We don’t have an official explanation.of course, but there are many reasons that would explain such a decision. These are the most important and the ones that make the most sense right now:
- Need to clear PS5 stock.
- Absence of triple-A games to accompany the launch of PS5 Pro.
- Possible delay in the launch of GTA 6, which was shaping up to be one of the most important titles that could arrive along with this new console, or shortly after.
- Complications at the design or production level, or even a cost-related issue.
If it releases this year!
