It was previously reported that a new PlayStation 5 model with a detachable disc drive could release later this year, which seems to be a  separate model to the rumored PS5 Pro. 

Insiders have also claimed that this model will phase out the original PlayStation 5 to address the shipment and production issues that saw the fans complain about the PS5 scarcity in 2022.

Although, given that Sony had previously released the PS4 Pro in 2016, three years after the PS4 came out in 2013, the recent rumour should not come as much of a surprise. 

However, since there is no official confirmation from Sony yet, fans should not totally bank on the reports making the rounds.
