Sony will present details about the PS5 Pro on September 10, 2024. Many gamers are expecting a major announcement. However, these expectations have been dashed before.
What kind of video is this? Sony plans to hold a presentation on September 10, 2024, at 7 PM. The video is currently titled “PS5 Technical Presentation hosted by Mark Cerny.” According to the YouTube channel, Cerny intends to give a “technical presentation focused on the PS5 and innovations in gaming.”
Everyone is now hoping for the big reveal of the PS5 Pro and many details. But this might be where you could be disappointed.
Here is the official presentation of the PS5 Pro:
Cerny’s first technical presentation scared many gamers off
What’s the problem? During the PS5 presentation in March 2020, there was also a technical presentation by Cerny. And that’s exactly what was shown: technical details about the SSD and the processor. But many viewers felt bored because they were expecting something entirely different:
- Viewers were expecting a lively and entertaining show with games and trailers.
- They wanted to finally see the top-secret design of the PS5, which was still unknown at that time. It was only revealed 3 months later.
- Instead, they got technical facts that they didn’t want to hear or see at all. Accordingly, the chat reacted negatively, criticizing Sony and its ‘Lead Architect.’
What will be shown on September 10, 2024? The presentation on September 10 is also supposed to include a “technical presentation.” According to leaks, the PS5 Pro will be discussed, but it is quite certain that you will mostly be faced with a dry, technical lecture. And not an edited gaming stream, like Sony regularly hosts as “State of Play.”
Mark Cerny is not a full-time gamer or game developer; he is a technical professional, although he contributed to games like “Sonic the Hedgehog 2” and “Crash Bandicoot” in the 90s. Mark Cerny is regarded as the genius behind the development of the PS5. Just recently, he recognized what gamers really want on the PS5 and PC.
Don’t have false expectations
Here’s how to avoid disappointment: Don’t go in with false expectations for the technical presentation, just like thousands of other viewers did during the last stream in March 2020.
And if you are disappointed, don’t take out your anger on Cerny or the Sony team. Because the organizer has clearly presented the stream as a “technical presentation.”
Therefore, do not expect to learn about detailed images, the price, or even a release date during the event on September 10, 2024. Rather, there will be a so-called “Deep Dive,” a deep insight into the technology of the PS5 and possibly its successor.
