Could PS5 Pro be unveiled at the Tokyo Game Show 2024?

The PS5 Pro could be at the Tokyo Game Show, per recent rumors and speculations. The next Sony gaming console is already due given the original machine turns four years old this Fall. Although the 2020 PlayStation 5 was revamped last year with extra storage and some quality-of-life improvements, a proper hardware overhaul is now needed to bring the machine to par with the latest innovations and performance improvements on PC.

Several rumors previously suggested the console would be launched in November 2024, with some sources even confirming that PS5 Pro dev kits had started rolling out. However, the latest rumors come from multiple sources, with YouTuber 2 old 4 gaming describing why a launch at TGS is probable. Even a TweakTown report hinted at the possibilities of the next console.

2 old 4 gaming said:

"Exhibiting at the major show means something is up."

Why are fans expecting the PS5 Pro to be launched at the Tokyo Game Show?

One of the main reasons why speculations about Sony having a new console to show off at the upcoming convention are through the roof is that several years have been skipped back to back. As 2 old 4 gaming rationalized, participating in such events is a costly endeavor for companies. Since they plan to do it this year after a four-year-long pause, "something is up."

Here's what was said in the video:

"It costs them a lot of money to organize something like this and they've not wanted to do it for years. So, for them to do it now means they have some tech or some games they wanna show. This would be the perfect place for the PS5 Pro."

Sony showed off the original PlayStation VR at TGS a few years back, allowing representatives to demonstrate the technology in detail at the convention. Thus, gamers are expecting some exciting game or even the Pro-grade console itself to try out this year.

Overall, the timeline for the upcoming gaming machine strongly hints it could be introduced this summer, with availability beginning in fall. I am beyond excited to find out what Sony actually brings to the table at TGS this year.
