The beefed-up GPU, featuring dedicated hardware to ramp up ray tracing performance.

Game studios are already gearing up for the PlayStation 5 Pro, having received development kits to start preparing game updates. While specific titles for support haven’t been announced yet, Sony is anticipated to optimize all major PS5 hits for the Pro’s launch later this year.

Gamers can anticipate smoother frame rates, higher resolutions, and possibly even support for 8K displays, although the full extent of its 8K capabilities remains to be revealed.
