PlayStation 4 Pro 4K Gaming Detailed By Digital Foundry (video)

Rate this Entry

Gamers patiently waiting for the launch of the new PlayStation 4 Pro console, that would like to learn more about its 4K Ultra HD features and specifications, are sure to enjoy the video embedded below.
During which the team over at Digital Foundry explains a little more about what you can expect in the way of 4K features from the PlayStation 4 Pro console. Which is now available to pre-order and will be launching during November providing an increase in hardware specifications when compared to the current PS4 hardware.

The Eurogamer website explain a little more :
With just over a month to go before the new console launches, the lack of exposure for the system is puzzling. There are many reasons to be optimistic about the hardware’s chances, principally because the software I’ve seen – principally Days Gone and Horizon Zero Dawn – looks impressive. They’re not launch titles, of course, but they perhaps hint at the kind of quality we may see more generally a couple of months on from release. More than that, the price-point of the PlayStation Pro – $399/£349 – makes the hardware a no-brainer for new console buyers as we move into the holiday season.
The bottom line is this. While we can fully expect bundling deals and special offers to drive down prices on existing hardware, the retail pricing for PS4 Pro is undeniably compelling – $100/£100 more than the new CUH-2000 ‘Slim’ PlayStation 4 model buys you 31 per cent of extra CPU power, 2.3x the GPU grunt, faster RAM and twice the storage space. As things stand, the base PS4 is suddenly looking very expensive for what it offers, relatively.
By pricing PlayStation 4 Pro in line with the original PS4’s launch cost, Sony has realised that there’s a certain price ceiling acceptable for a mainstream console launch, and while the omission of the UHD Blu-ray drive is a bad move for a device aimed at the higher end, more discerning user, it’s clearly a business decision aimed at getting as many consoles into homes as quickly as possible. Keeping the price low also helps to address the key concern about the hardware, which is pretty simple: to what extent does it actually improve the visual experience? Before addressing that, it’s worth pointing out that the relatively small price bump from PS4 to Pro means that even if you’re buying just for more refined performance, excellent anti-aliasing and 2x the storage, you’re still not getting a bad deal.
