The PlayStation 5 Pro is all that gamers across the world can talk about right now. After the PS5 Slim’s launch, all eyes are on the next-gen console which will be even more powerful than the OG PS5. And now, fresh reports have indicated that the PS5 Pro launch might be around the corner as Sony is asking developers to ensure that their games are compatible with the upcoming PS5.
According to a report in GSM Arena, Sony is reportedly asking developers to prepare their games for the PS5 Pro, emphasising enhancements in ray tracing capabilities. Rumoured to be codenamed Trinity, the PS5 Pro is expected to feature an upgraded GPU and a slightly enhanced CPU mode. These improvements are aimed at boosting the console’s ability to support games with advanced ray tracing, and to achieve higher resolution and frame rates in some games.
An earlier report from InsiderGaming had revealed that Sony will be introducing a new PS5 Pro Enhanced label, signalling games optimised to use the console’s enhanced capabilities. This label is being expected to serve as a mark of distinction for titles offering a PS5 Pro graphics mode, featuring enhancements like PSSR for 4K upscaling, a consistent 60 frames-per-second framerate, and enhanced ray-tracing capabilities.
Similar to the PS4 Pro Enhanced label of the previous generation, the Trinity Enhanced label will inform players when a game has been optimised specifically for the PS5 Pro hardware. This includes improvements in graphics performance and resolution, providing gamers with a superior visual experience.
Talking about when the console is expected to launch, the PS5 Pro is expected to hit the Indian markets later this year. YouTuber Moore’s Law is Dead had earlier said that he got hold of a technical document for the PS5 Pro, nicknamed Trinity. The video was taken down as it included copyrighted material which belonged to Sony. This had further sparked rumours that work on the PS5 Pro was indeed going on in full swing.
Coming to the expected specifications of the PS5 Pro, reports have earlier hinted at significant upgrades over its predecessor. Gamers can expect enhancements such as a 10 percent higher-clocked CPU, 28 percent faster memory, and up to a 45 percent rendering performance improvement. These improvements are expected to result in smoother gameplay, faster load times, and enhanced graphical fidelity.
While expectations are high for the PS5 Pro, reports indicate that gamers should not anticipate titles like GTA 6 to run at 60 frames per second on the Pro iteration of the PS5. However, the console is anticipated to deliver improved 4K performance and may even introduce a new 8K performance mode.
