PS5 Might Prolong Its Life With Mid-Cycle Refresh Similar To PS4 Pro, Sony Suggests

The PS4 Pro was, for Sony, a way to prolong the PS4’s life, with Ito also calling it a “test case” for Sony’s similar plans with the PS5.

It was only a couple months ago that we received reports that Sony was looking into launching the PS5 Pro alongside the base PS5.

That was the thinking behind it, and the test case of that thinking was the PS4 Pro that launched in the midway of the PS4 launch cycle.”
