After weeks of speculation, Sony has officially confirmed a special event for September 10, 2024,via a teaser, which will most likely unveil the long-awaited PlayStation 5 Pro.

Earlier rumors indicated a resemblance to the current PS5 (currently $499 on Amazon for the Slim version), with added black stripes for the Pro version, as well as a price range of $599 for the digital model and $699 for the disk drive variant. While Sony hasn’t outright confirmed the PS5 Pro reveal, all signs point towards this being the main focus of the event.
