After years of rumors, the PlayStation 5 Pro has officially been announced by Sony, and it’s arriving in less than two months. And while Sony’s mid-generation console update is a powerful machine, the social media reaction to its $700 price tag has been less than enthusiastic so far.
One of the most common complaints among gamers is that neither the disc drive nor the vertical stand are included with the PS5 Pro.
Another drawback for fans is that only a select number of games are currently slated to feature PS5 Pro enhancements.
Others have noted that the price of the PS4 Pro didn’t have the same sticker shock. And the PS4 Pro didn’t exclude the disc drive.
One gamer brought up a nearly forgotten console from the ’90s that was also going for $700 at the time. It’s not adjusted for inflation, of course.
If there are any positive reactions to PS5 Pro’s $700 price tag, then we haven’t seen them yet. But the real test of whether gamers are willing to pay that much will be when we see how many PS5 Pros are sold when it launches on November 7.
