The next version of Sony’s PlayStation games console range, the PlayStation 5 Pro, is going on sale in November.

Maker Sony said the new PlayStation 5 Pro console has a substantially upgraded internal system to boost speed and performance, while artificial intelligence is also being used to enhance image clarity and detail in video games.

The new device will go on sale on November 7 for £700 and will come as a discless console, although users will be able to buy a disc drive separately if they wish, Sony said.

The announcement marks the first major console upgrade to PlayStation since the PS5 was launched more than four years ago.

Hideaki Nishino, chief executive of the platform business group at Sony Interactive Entertainment, said:

“PS5 Pro provides gamers with amazing graphics at high frame rates.

“Other enhancements include PS5 Pro Game Boost, which can apply to more than 8,500 backward compatible PS4 games playable on PS5 Pro.

“This feature may stabilise or improve the performance of supported PS4 and PS5 games. Enhanced Image Quality for PS4 games is also available to improve the resolution on select PS4 games.

“PS5 Pro will also launch with the latest wireless technology, Wi-Fi 7, in territories supporting this standard. VRR and 8K gaming are also supported.

“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.”

A number of existing PlayStation games have also been confirmed as being enhanced at the launch of the new console to take advantage of its new features.

They include Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, Hogwarts Legacy, Horizon Forbidden West, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us Part II Remastered.
