PS5 Pro: $700 Price Tag Justified by Trade-In Offers, Says Former Blizzard President

Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra has defended the PS5 Pro’s controversial $700 price, explaining that it can be seen as a $350 upgrade for current PS5 owners who trade in their consoles at places like GameStop. Ybarra argues that this trade-in model lowers the entry barrier for those looking to upgrade to the new console. Despite the high cost, Ybarra emphasized that no one is obligated to buy the PS5 Pro, noting that it’s a luxury for those who want the fastest and most powerful console. However, this perspective assumes trade-in values remain consistent and doesn’t account for those who don’t yet own a PS5. What do you think—is the PS5 Pro worth the upgrade?
