PlayStation 5 Pro Launch

Sony has officially announced the local pricing and availability of the PlayStation 5 Pro in Malaysia. The high-end console, which features significant hardware upgrades, is set to launch on the 7th of November at a retail price of RM3,849. Pre-orders will begin on the 26th of September through Sony’s official web store and participating retailers.

The PlayStation 5 Pro boasts a larger GPU, advanced ray tracing capabilities, AI-driven upscaling, and PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR). These enhancements deliver improved visuals, faster rendering, and a more immersive gaming experience. The console also supports Wi-Fi 7, variable refresh rate (VRR), and 8K gaming.

In addition to its hardware upgrades, the PS5 Pro also introduces a new feature called PS5 Pro Game Boost. This feature, moreover, enhances over 8,500 backwards-compatible PS4 games. Furthermore, high-profile titles such as *Alan Wake 2*, *Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth*, and *Marvel’s Spider-Man 2* will carry the PS5 Pro Enhanced tag. As a result, these games will offer improved visuals and performance.

Although the PS5 Pro features internal upgrades, it retains the same height and width as the original model. Furthermore, it nearly doubles the frame rate while still maintaining high image quality. In addition, all existing PS5 accessories, such as the VR2 and Access controllers, remain compatible. Users can also continue to enjoy the same interface and network services.

The PS5 Pro will include a 2TB SSD, a DualSense wireless controller, and a copy of Astro’s Playroom pre-installed. It should be noted that the console is digital-only but is capable of supporting the existing PS5 Disc Drive attachment (RM529) which will allow it to read Blu-ray discs.
