PS5 Pro sales are doing even better than Sony expected, with the price not putting off the ‘hardcore users’ the console is aimed at.
PS5 Pro – not a flop It may cost a fortune but despite rumours that it’s not selling, the PS5 Pro is doing even better than Sony originally expected. Given its existence was leaked well over a year ago, the PS5 Pro has been the subject of controversy for a very long time. The mid-generation upgrade costs a staggering £700, which stands as the most obvious proof that the console is not aimed at ordinary gamers, but only hardcore fans.
Even if it is selling ‘slightly’ more than the PS4 Pro at the moment, it’s still only going to be a comparatively minor release for Sony, with no significant impact on either their bottom line or the PlayStation brand as a whole. But that is what people have been just as upset about, as Sony continues to remain very distant from its fans, with few public announcements and a release schedule that is for more sparse now than at the start of the generation.
