Speculation is rife that Sony subtly revealed the anticipated PS5 Pro during its recent PlayStation 30th-anniversary festivities. Sharp-eyed PlayStation enthusiasts are responsible for this exciting discovery!

Sony's Potential PS5 Pro Sneak Peek

A Subtle Hint on the Official Website?

A recent PlayStation Blog post sparked a frenzy among fans. An image on Sony's website, part of the 30th-anniversary celebration, seemingly showcased a new PS5 design—one strikingly similar to leaked PS5 Pro images.

The image, nestled in the background of the anniversary logo, was first spotted by a keen-eyed fan. This discovery fueled speculation about an imminent PS5 Pro unveiling, possibly by the end of the month. Although Sony hasn't officially announced a State of Play event, rumors persist that a major reveal, including the PS5 Pro, is planned for later this month.

Meanwhile, Sony is celebrating PlayStation's 30th anniversary with a range of activities. Gamers can enjoy a free Gran Turismo 7 trial, digital soundtracks from classic PlayStation titles, and participate in the "Shapes of Play" initiative. The "Shapes of Play" collection launches 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 stated that players can enjoy online multiplayer for their owned games without a PlayStation Plus subscription on PS5 and PS4 during this period, with further details promised soon.
