The PS5 Pro console will be available this holiday at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $699.99 USD, £699.99 GBP, €799.99 EUR, and ¥119,980 JPY (includes tax). It will include a 2TB SSD, a DualSense wireless controller and a copy of Astro’s Playroom pre-installed in every PS5 Pro purchase. PS5 Pro is available as a disc-less console, with the option to purchase the currently available Disc Drive for PS5 separately.
The big question mark for me is that not only does it cost 800 euros, it does NOT come with a disc drive. There is no version of it with a disc drive like the PS5, you have to buy it as an accessory. I guess physical games really are going away.
Sadly not an option for console. I don’t own a PS5 currently but when I did own consoles I would trade games and buy used all the time, it’s a shame this might not be possible next generation.
For the record the devs said this game took eight years to make, and might’ve been pitched even earlier than that. I can’t imagine working on a project for a decade and releasing to… This.
This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube....
The same devs went on to make Vintage Story and finding copper there can also be a real pain. It’s kind of wild to hear their Minecraft mod having the same issue.
As for price and features I think it will be comparable in price to the PS5 and Series X so around the £450 point.
I doubt it actually. One of the key selling points of the Switch is the console being cheaper than competition, the Switch going for $300 and Switch Lite going for $200. I think it’ll stay the same price or at most be $350 with a general hardware upgrade.
Also betting on a new 3D mario game being the launch title. I would be surprised if there also isn’t DLC or an enhanced edition of Tears of the Kingdom also there.
From Xbox’s side we’ll hear more about their new 1st party titles from all those studios they acquired but I don’t expect many of them to release this year. Their one popular title will probably be Avowed, which I’m expecting to be basically Skyrim 1.5, janky combat included.
Other random predictions:
Final Fantasy 16 comes to PC (as an Epic exclusive as usual)
Hollow Knight Silksong releases late 2024
Elden Ring DLC releases within a few months and is a banger
Windows game emulation on Android phones and ARM laptops will actually get really good
Valheim will still only release 1-2 major updates within the year
Many studios will attempt gimmicky AI-enhanced video games then give up when people quickly get over it
Netflix will combine or collaborate with Xbox Game Pass in some way
Lots of larger sized indie games will release on the Godot Engine instead of Unity.
