PlayStation 5 Pro Reportedly Releasing Alongside Base PS5
The report comes way of Japanese journalist Zenji Nishikawa, who claims Sony is well aware that there's interest -- especially within the hardcore PlayStation community -- of a high-end model of the next-gen console, and rather then make said consumers wait until the middle of the generation, it will offer the option to buy into the premium PlayStation life at the start of the generation.
Now, as always, all rumors and reports should be taken with a grain of salt. In other words, don't go betting your house on any of the unofficial information here. However, Nishikawa has traditionally been a very reliable source, and notably revealed the Nintendo Switch Lite before Nintendo did. So, there's history of the journalist having hardware scoops.
That said, I'm personally dubious, only because it seems like money left on the table. Why wouldn't you sell the hardcore PlayStation fans the base PS5 at launch and then make them upgrade in a few years? Having them buy in only once is leaving a considerable bit of change on the table. However, I suppose it's possible it could still get said consumers to double dip with a PS5 Pro Plus, or something of this nature.

Phone manufacturers do this with every release. Not surprising to see it potentially happening to consoles.
