So Sony could delay PS5 to improve it further, which will also give developers some more time to work on end gen games port for the launch, also PSvr2 (if thats a thing) will greatly benefit from concurrent development, My bet is Fall 2020 |
I don’t think that Sony ever expected the Pro to take off. They always marketed it as a nice bonus for PSVR and 4K TV owners, but never as an essential upgrade like MS did with the X1X. They for sure know that price is the big deciding factor, not power.
