According to billbil-kun, the official name of the console will indeed be “PS5 Pro,” something that most fans have expected over all these years. Though the leaker wasn’t able to share pictures, they did draw an illustration, approximating what they could show.

Billbil-kun’s sketch below reveals the design of the upcoming console, and the side panels will have three black stripes in the middle. The current PS5 Slim comes with a single stripe, so it’s evident Sony is going with a design that users are already familiar with.

A disc section is missing from the sketch above, so it’s unclear at the moment if Sony is planning to go digital-only or if it will release a disc variant of the console as well. From the images in the report, the design of the upcoming console appears to be slightly thicker than the current Slim model.

The report also says the outer covers will be White with 2 USB-C ports and the power button in the front. Billbil-kun also says the standard DualSense controller will be provided with the PS5 Pro, and not the DualSense Edge controller, in case you were wondering.

Considering this is sketch is purportedly of the final design, Sony could officially announce the PS5 Pro’s arrival pretty soon. At the time of writing, that’s all the info we have. Anything related to specifications is yet to be revealed by Sony.
