The release window for the upcoming PlayStation 5 Pro could be up in the air, according to a reliable insider.

Sonystill has yet to confirm the existence of thePlayStation 5 Pro. However, over the years anticipation has been building for the upgraded PS5 console, especially asleaks and reportshave become more frequent.

Henderson was asked about the launch of the PS5 Pro. In a reply on X/Twitter, the reliable leaker and owner of Insider Gaming suggested to a fan that the console may not be released this year at all.

If it releases this year!

According to Henderson, several sources have questioned the PS5 Pro’s release this year due to the low number of first-party games expected to use the console’s upgraded tech.

However, his report also explains that developers have until July 30th to submit applications for their games to support the PS5 Pro to Platform Certifications & Operations (CertOps.)

As of writing, the latest information sent to Henderson still abides by us seeing the PS5 Pro release sometime later this year, regardless of any doubts. We’ll have to wait with bated breath to see if that’ll still be the case. As with all leaks, this recent insight needs to be taken with a huge PS5-sized pinch of salt.

Despite that fact, Henderson ensures that PS5 Pro development kits are in the hands of studios. So while it’s all quiet on the Sony front, we recommend still saving that extra cash you have hidden away for the inevitable upgraded Sony pixel-pushing machine.
