Today’s the day — PlayStation 4 Pro is now available at major retailers across North America, and the globe. Whether you’re picking up a system to take advantage of dynamic 4K visuals, or for the boosted processing power that makes games run smoother than ever, you’re in for a treat.
We’ve got a great lineup of more than 40 games that will support PS4 Pro on day-one. That includes already released hits like Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, The Last of Us Remastered, Paragon, and Firewatch, which look even more stunning on PS4 Pro, and recent games like Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Head here for a full list of PS4 games that support PS4 Pro on day one.
Looking ahead, all first-party titles launching in or after 2017 will support dynamic 4K gaming. To learn more about the features of PS4 Pro, check out the PS4 Pro Feature Breakdown on PlayStation.com.
Additionally, the Netflix app on PS4 Pro now supports 4K streaming and provides Netflix members access to hundreds of hours of TV shows and movies in stunning 4K quality. YouTube has also been updated on PS4 Pro to support 4K content. And lastly, Hulu has an update for PS4 Pro, providing best-in-class video services at launch.
If you picked up PlayStation VR, you may know that PS4 Pro fully supports the system. PS4 Pro can deliver an enhanced experience for some PS VR titles thanks to PS4 Pro’s increased processing power.
Of course, maintaining one central PS4 community is incredibly important to us. All games and gameplay features will be available on both PS4 Pro and the standard PS4, meaning you never have to worry about missing out on the next big game or not being able to play with a friend online.
From everyone at PlayStation, we’re so excited for you to experience the next step in PS4’s journey with PS4 Pro.
Mine is being delivered today. Very excited since I have so many games getting the upgrade. Thank you PlayStation
Me too, I just got 1TB FireCuda Hard Drive and hoping this will improve PS4 Pro performance even more. Will be performing surgery tonight.
Seriously Sony??? Read the fine print folks. It was bad enough that you guys didn’t include a 4K optical-drive but now I’m reading that the Playstation VR PU (Processor Unit) doesn’t support 4K HDR passthrough; it only supports UHD passthrough meaning if you have the PSVR you will disconnect the Pro from the PSVR and plug it directly into your TV to view 4k. I almost wasn’t going to buy the Pro because of the lack of the drive but after seeing some of the games running at 4K AND the inclusion of the 3rd USB 3.0 port I decided to get it because you can’t use a racing wheel, PSVR AND a good wireless headset without 3 USB ports (and no the USB port extenders don’t work for PSVR or a racing wheels). Now I’m setting everything up and I read that if I want to view 4K HDR content from my Pro I will have disconnect it from the PSVR Processor Unit and plug it directly into the TV…Somebody at Sony didn’t think this through very well.
@BAD-WAYNE Calm down, and let’s get something straightened out. The VR pass through supports 4K (or UHD, it’s the same thing) but does NOT support HDR. So yeah you will need to disconnect and reconnect if you want HDR content. Yes it’s a flaw but currently, there’s not too much HDR content out there. Think only Last Of Us and inFamous supports it atm.
@ +kdiep that is the lamest excuse I’ve ever read. Too little HDR content at launch, but we all know that every single upcoming title will be HDR-compatible. Isn’t the PS4 Pro supposed to be a “future-proofed PS4”?
Do either of you two have a solution for it? Is it possible that Sony couldn’t for any number of reasons? Does this, like 4K Blu Ray even effect you or are we just complaining to complain?
Agreed it’s unfortunate. However the attitude of how could you is odd to me. It’s because… because of actual limitations or limitations at the price point they wanted to reach.
I have no idea if the problem can be solved via patch or what.
But the because is obviously legit. So no reason to be sore
@ + Suby_Greg why do you want to defend them so bad? I *do* have issues with this, because the plugging/unplugging every damn time you want to switch between VR and playing a regular game on HDR mode will be annoying AF.
Not defending them. Pointing out the obvious. They didn’t just over look it. There is a legit reason. Most likely to do with cost and/or price point.
And I’m sure if Sony were to increase price to resolve this issue or 4K blu ray, you would be crying about that also.
That is not my problem as a consumer, that’s entirely on them to figure out how to make these two devices to communicate seamlessly. It was well thought out on their end, and that’s the end of this discussion.
*wasn’t* well thought out
It’s there job to make sure a product works yes. And it does. Stop acting like you lied to or misled.
While I sympathize with the situation you described, you product is not broken.
