Earlier today, YouTube channel Mooor’s Law is Dead apparently leaked the specifications of the unannounced PS5 Pro. While we should all take leaks with a bag of salt, it seems this one just gained a lot more traction.
Insider-Gaming’s Tom Henderson claims that the leaked specs are the real deal and was leaked from a PlayStation developer portal, which was sent out this week to third-party developers.
Aside from targeting a consistent frame rate at 4K resolution, a new “Performance Mode” for 8K resolution and accelerated ray tracing, it’s also mentioned that the PS5 Pro will feature 30WGP and 18000mts memory.
More info from Moor’s Law is Dead:
- Rendering 45% faster than PS5
- 2-3x Ray-tracing (x4 in some cases)
- 33.5 Teraflops
- PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Upscaling) upscaling/antialiasing solution
- Support for resolutions up to 8K is planned for future SDK version
- Custom machine learning architecture
- AI Accelerator, supporting 300 TOPS of 8 bit computation / 67 TFLOPS of 16-bit floating point
Furthermore, it’s believed that devkits have been available to first-party studios since September 2023, with third-party studios having access to it since January 2024.
It’s said that the PS5 Pro is targeting a “Holiday 2024” release, but that could change due to the drought of first-party PlayStation games set for the PS5 this year.
Same as with every leak, treat it with a grain of salt until confirmed by Sony.
