State of Play Expected to Fumble PS5 Pro After Surprising Sony Leak
- A massive leak reveals Sony's 'State of Play' presentation is scheduled for later this month, with many expecting the surprise reveal of a mid-generation PS5 Pro model, alongside new first-party game trailers.
- Industry insiders claim the event will finally showcase the heavily-rumored PS5 Pro, boasting double the ray tracing power, which could make current base PS5 models feel dated.
- The leaked 'State of Play' lineup reportedly includes a long-awaited update from a major exclusive franchise, potentially Grand Theft Auto 6 or a new God of War spin-off, driving heavy social media speculation.
- Sony may also use the broadcast to shift its 'live service' strategy, highlighting a single-player comeback after the failure of games like Concord, changing the competitive landscape.
- Global retailers are already preparing for a potential price hike on current stock, as the 'State of Play' leak suggests Sony will immediately open pre-orders for the new hardware.
