A new hardware revision for the PlayStation 5 Pro is rumored to be arriving in Europe by the end of September, maintaining the price point of the current model. According to a report on Dealabs by the reliable source billbil-kun, the updated version, identified as the CFI-7121, has been discovered through Japanese certification documents. This hardware revision is expected to offer enhanced energy efficiency while keeping the existing design and the 2 TB SSD capacity unchanged.
Set to be priced at €799.99, the new revision of the PlayStation 5 Pro maintains the cost while promoting improved performance in terms of energy usage. As of now, a North American release has not been confirmed, adding an air of uncertainty around its availability outside Europe.
The credibility of billbil-kun’s information stems from previous accurate leaks, including the recent European launch of the Digital Edition CFI-2000 revision. Consequently, it’s likely that this new model will indeed debut in Europe soon. Fortunately for consumers, there seems to be little urgency to purchase the current PS5 Pro model; the storage capacity remains unchanged, and the attractive price has not been adjusted upwards through its features.
Distinguishing the PlayStation 5 Pro from its base model counterparts is its advanced support for the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution upscaler, which is anticipated to receive enhancements next year. This feature, among others, underscores the PS5 Pro’s position as a powerful gaming console that significantly improves upon Sony’s original PlayStation 5 offerings.
