Sony May Launch PS5 Pro in 2024 to Capitalize on GTA VI Hype, But Questions Remain on Pricing and Timing
- Analysts predict Sony will launch a souped-up PS5 Pro console in late 2024 ahead of the 2025 launch of Grand Theft Auto VI
- The goal would be to boost interest in PS5 ahead of the guaranteed blockbuster GTA VI release
- Questions remain around whether PS5 Pro would bring a base PS5 price drop or if Sony would maintain $499 price
- Analysts predict even with a PS5 Pro, overall PS5 sales could still decline year-over-year
- Timing in 2024 would be odd with a lack of big Sony tentpole game releases to drive interest that year
