After a long season of rumors, Sony finally unveiled the PlayStation 5 Pro, considered the most powerful console the Japanese company has created. The hype ignited immediately, although the price calmed the waters a bit since $699.99 USD is in a range to consider these days, even in first-world markets where, in theory, it is easier to allocate resources to entertainment. For one reason or another, this has impacted pre-sales as it is reported that they have not been sold out in countries like the United States and the United Kingdom.
The PS5 Pro has not exhausted its pre-sales in the United States and the United Kingdom, markets that favor Sony
Although the PS5 Pro is considered a console for a niche just as happened with the PS4 and therefore will not sell dozens of units, it has emerged that in recent days and within the framework of the start of pre-sales on PlayStation Direct these have not been sold out . According to information from the journalist The VergeTom WarrenPS5 Pro pre-sales have not been sold out in the US and the UK. From their perspective, this has to do with the price of the console, $699.99 USD, as it is a figure that not everyone is willing to spend for a system of this type this holiday season.
Inevitably, users on social networks have compared the expectation for the PS5 Pro with what there was at the time for the PS5 before its debut in November 2020. In that sense, the Sony console came from the overwhelming success of the PS4, but he was faced with the difficulties of the pandemic and an atypical increase in the demand for video games due to the forced confinement.
This generated speculation, hoarding and reselling, a phenomenon that lasted a couple of years making it almost impossible to get a PS5 in some markets. Then, the situation returned to normal, the manufacturing, distribution and sales chains stabilized and the PS5 was no longer out of stock.
In the case of the PS5 Pro, there are some factors to take into account. The price of the console, $699.99 USD, is one of them, but it cannot be overlooked that the Sony system has fewer titles that attract attention to think about an expense of that size since this generation has stood out, for the worse, for the few AAA releases designed only for current systems.
Based on the above, it is estimated that there will be PS5 Pro units to obtain without any problem in this year’s holiday season.
