The PlayStation 5 Pro was finally unveiled to the public yesterday. We had seen countless reports that this console model was coming, and it ramped up last week. There were reports of a special presentation coming our way this week. Fortunately, those reports were proven accurate as Sony took to the internet and briefly explained what to expect when the PlayStation 5 Pro drops. Likewise, we also found that it lacks PlayStation 5 disc drives.
Fans were given some nice little details of the console and its power. But as mentioned it was immediately shown as a console that lacked a disc drive. This is the trend Sony started up with the PlayStation 5 recently. Consoles released from the company now can install a disc drive separately. That allows consumers to cut down on the cost of a console if they are fine with just having a digital-only unit. However, those who want the freedom to play physical games and media can purchase a PlayStation 5 disc drive.
Well, it looks like fans of the PlayStation 5 Pro are already gearing up to install these drives. As reported by Insider Gaming and X user Wario64, the PlayStation 5 disc drives are selling out. You might have a hard time finding them on digital retailers online. This sudden surge of purchases for the PlayStation 5 disc drive might be an indicator that there are quite a few interested adopters for the PlayStation 5 Pro when it launches.
Meanwhile, plenty of consumers turned off the PlayStation 5 Pro because of the price point. Players will find that the PlayStation 5 Pro launches for $699.99 when it drops on November 7, 2024. Of course, we’ll have to wait and see how well the console model does when it officially launches into the marketplace.
Likewise, now that the PlayStation 5 Pro is out of the way, more attention is being paid to Nintendo. We know that they are working on the next console release. Unfortunately, we don’t know anything about the console at the moment. That said, a recent report suggests a marketing commercial was recently filmed, which could mean an official reveal will be inbound soon.
