The latest batch of rumors makes it clear that the PlayStation 5 Pro is coming this year, but will anyone really care about slightly better 4K graphics? This week, Engadget Editor-in-Chief Jessica Conditt joins Cherlynn and Devindra to chat about the PS5 Pro, as well as her work on PlayDate two years after its release. You could say that the Playdate is the opposite of another expensive high-end console.
In other news, we discuss the death of Boston Dynamic’s hydraulic Atlas robot and the birth of an all-new digital model. We also talk about the sudden closure of ambitious indie game studio Possibility Space.
