All the latest PS4 Pro deals and your questions answered.
Sony has officially announced the new 4K PlayStation 4, it’s called the PS4 Pro, it’s awesome and it’s out now.
We imagine you’re on the lookout for a cheap PS4 Pro deal then. Below you’ll find all of the latest and best PS4 prices from the big name stores in our comparison chart. Don’t expect much difference in price between retail stores so soon after the launch, but we’ll let you know if there’s a saving to be had or voucher code to use.
Keep this page bookmarked as we’ll update it with bundles when they arrive too. If you’re looking for more information on the PS4 Pro, take a look at our handy Q&A below.
While Playstation 4 Pro bundles are constantly shifting from store to store, we’ve listed and ranked the best current options from the major retailers below so you don’t have to do the sniffing scratching yourself.
Remember that the value of a bundle will ultimately come down to whether or not you were going to purchase the included game (or games) anyway and while some bundles are obviously better priced than others, you should check to see if that saving is worthwhile.
This is the best value bundle available at the moment, with three excellent titles and a Universal Remote, this is a no-brainer. Horizon Zero Dawn has been lauded as the game of the year so far and Prey isn’t far behind, and while Fallout 4 was released over a year ago, it is still a stellar game with a lasting appeal given its recent-ish support for user-created mods on consoles. The catch is that it’s only available until the 28/06/2017 or while stocks last.
This bundle is perfect for anyone that is at least half-interested in any of these games and wants to get a PS4 Pro console on the cheap. Horzion: Zero Dawn is the real selling point in this package, but if you’re a fan of The Elder Scrolls or into MMORPGs then this is sure to make you happy.

Essentially, the PS4 Pro is an upgrade of the PS4, rather than a ‘next-gen’ console. The keywords to take in from the PS4 Pro are 4K and HDR. The new machine will allow game developers to include 4K options in their games, so expect the like of Uncharted 4, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Days Gone, Horizon: Zero Dawn and more to look even better on a 4K TV.
HDR, or High Dynamic Range is the other buzzword to be excited about as the PS4 Pro will allow for extra detail to be seen on a range of games and also a wider range of colours not usually displayed by traditional HD TVs.
Absolutely. If you’re planning on upgrading to a PS4 Pro from an older PS4, all of your games will still work. Not every title will be patched to take advantage of the new 4K/HDR capabilities, but the default upscaling (if you have a 4K TV) will more than likely see some improvement to the visuals and the improved console power may give the frame-rate a boost on some titles.
The PS4 Pro is compatible with 4K and HDR, and the content options for both are increasing all the time on services like Amazon Prime Instant Video and Netflix. Sony has already confirmed there will be hundreds of hours of 4K Netflix content at launch. There’s a lot of free 4K content on the YouTube app too.
No. This was a surprise if we’re honest, especially as the new Xbox One S console does. It’s a bit of a gamble for Sony, but at the same time, 4K Blu-rays are very expensive for now and many consumers look to digital services to provide their 4K movies and TV content.
No, the PS4 Pro will still work on a regular 1080p TV, you won’t get the benefits of upscaling or HDR though. You may see a slim amount of extra detail, or frame-rate boost, but we wouldn’t expect a massive leap.
If you are thinking of buying a 4K TV soon, then it’s probably a good idea to splash out on the PS4 Pro instead of the regular or new PS4 Slim as it’ll future proof you for a while. Be sure to look out for a TV that supports HDR too, in order to take full advantage of the PS4 Pro’s capabilities.
Early reports say yes. The PlayStation VR frame-rate is better on PS4 Pro and the resolution gets a bit of a bump too. PlayStation VR will certainly work on the older PS4s, you don’t need a PS4 Pro to get involved there.
Yes! The optical audio output has been removed from the PS4 Slim though, which is a massive shame. PS4 Pro owners though will still be able to use optical connections for their soundbars and sound systems.
