Sony's Subtle PS5 Pro Reveal?

A Hidden Image Sparks Speculation

A recent PlayStation Blog post featured an image seemingly showcasing a new PS5 design, remarkably similar to leaked PS5 Pro renders. This detail, nestled within the 30th-anniversary logo on Sony's official website, ignited a flurry of speculation amongst fans. The discovery suggests a potential imminent announcement, possibly coinciding with a late-September event. While Sony hasn't confirmed a State of Play event, rumors persist that the PS5 Pro unveiling will be part of a larger announcement later this month.

Meanwhile, Sony is celebrating PlayStation's 30th anniversary with a range of exciting initiatives. Gamers can enjoy a free Gran Turismo 7 trial, access digital soundtracks from classic PlayStation titles, and participate in the "Shapes of Play" collection launch. The "Shapes of Play" collection will debut in December 2024 via direct.playstation.com in the US, UK, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Benelux.

A free online multiplayer weekend and esports tournaments are also scheduled for September 21st and 22nd. Sony confirmed that players can enjoy online multiplayer access for their owned games without a PlayStation Plus subscription on both PS5 and PS4 consoles during this period. Further details are promised in the coming days.
