How to Pre-order the PS5 Pro Ahead of Its Release Date

Sony has officially announced the PlayStation 5 Pro. This is the upgraded, mid-generation version of the current hardware. It is a bit pricier than the current model, but this version of the system boasts higher fidelity at 60 frames-per-second. Here’s how to pre-order the PS5 Pro and what we know about its release date and price.

PS5 Pro release date and price, explained

Fortunately, we won’t have to wait too much longer to upgrade or buy a PS5 for the first time with the Pro variant. The PS5 Pro release date is currently set for November 7, 2024, per the presentation Sony held on September 10, 2024. This release date is a simultaneous worldwide one, as it includes various price currencies.

For those of us in the United States, the price for the PS5 Pro is currently set at $699.99. That is noticeably about $200 more than the current price of the base model of the PS5 that comes with a disc drive and $250 more than the digital-only console.

Here are the prices for the PS5 Pro we know about for all regions and currencies:

• S699.99
• £699.99
• €799.99
• ¥119,980 (includes tax)

How do I pre-order the PS5 Pro ahead of launch

Now that we know the PS5 Pro release date and price, you might want to go ahead and pre-order it. Unfortunately, pre-orders will not happen for any retailer until September 26, 2024. That said, there will likely be several possible options to choose of where to pre-order.

Note that this console does not come with a disc drive. This is despite costing more than the base model with a disc drive. You can purchase this drive separately, though, if you prefer. It will cost you around $79.99 in the US. That said, the Pro will come with a 2TB hard drive, which is vastly more storage than the previous version.

Here are the store listings for the PS5 disc drive, which will be compatible with the Pro. These retailers will also likely sell PS5 Pro pre-orders on September 26, 2024, so prepare accordingly.

• Amazon
• Best Buy
• Game Stop
• PS Direct
• Target
• Walmart

The PlayStation 5 Pro will release worldwide on November 7, 2024. Pre-orders will begin on September 26, 2024.
