PS5 Pros all but vanish after GTA 6 reveal, going for up to $1,300 at the few stores with stock

Following the debut of Grand Theft Auto 6's second trailer, PlayStation 5 Pro consoles have rapidly sold out across major retailers, with remaining units commanding extreme resale prices. The renewed hype around Rockstar's upcoming open-world sequel has apparently triggered a surge of demand for Sony's premium console hardware.

  • GTA 6's second trailer release directly preceded the PS5 Pro stock shortage
  • Resale prices for the PS5 Pro have reached approximately $1,300 at remaining retailers
  • The console was already available at limited retailers before this demand spike
  • Sony's more powerful PS5 variant is being sought specifically for the upcoming Rockstar title
