PlayStation 4 Pro Now on Sale at Retailers Across the World

The PlayStation 4 Pro, Sony’s beefed-up version of its market-leading PlayStation 4 console, is now available to purchase from major retailers in North America and other global territories.

In a post on the official PlayStation blog today, Sony highlighted key advantages of the Pro, including the “dynamic 4K visuals” that it can bring to games and “boosted processing power that makes games run smoother than ever”. Indeed, from today, over 40 PS4 games – including Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End and The Last of Us Remastered – support the Pro’s new tech not featured in the original PS4 console.

Sony added that, on the Pro, the Netflix app now supports 4K streaming and provides access to hundreds of hours of films and TV shows that can be viewed in 4K resolution. Meanwhile, it’s now that, for the new console, YouTube also supports 4K content and Hulu provides best-in-class video services.

Nonetheless, Shawn Layden, President of Sony Interactive Entertainment America, has emphasized that “maintaining one central PS4 community is incredibly important to us”, pointing out that “all games and gameplay features will be available on both PS4 Pro and the standard PS4”.

This, he added, means that “you never have to worry about missing out on the next big game or not being able to play with a friend online.” If you want to pick up the PlayStation 4 Pro, it’s now available and priced at $399 in the United States.
