Sony has finally unveiled its more powerful PS5, but the price is higher than some imagined it would be

PS5 Pro Revealed For $700, Launches In November

"Our PS5 journey would not be possible without the millions of players that have supported us through the years and have shared with us their love of gaming. Whichever console option players choose, whether it’s PS5 or PS5 Pro, we wish to bring everyone the very best gaming experience that fits their needs," Sony said.

The PS5 Pro's existence is in keeping with tradition for Sony, as the company previously launched a "Pro" version of the PS4 in November 2016. The PS4 Pro launched at $400, when the PS4 was $300. This time around, the price gap between the consoles is bigger, as the PS5 goes for $500 and the PS5 Pro will sell for $700.

Prior to the announcement, Hideo Kojima's assistant uploaded a photo of the developer playing Death Stranding 2 with what looks to be a device hidden under a cloak. Many believed this was a developer's version of the PS5 Pro.

The announcement of the PS5 Pro comes not long after Sony had a success story with the launch of the critically acclaimed Astro Bot. This game helped improve the vibe surrounding Sony following the abrupt shutdown of Concord.
