Today's the big day, with the PS5 Pro making its way into the hands of those willing to shell out for Sony's pricey mid-gen upgrade. While the main reason to pick one up remains the robust, muscular graphical gains the system provides, there is another: PS5 Pro owners can exclusively enjoy a fancy animated boot screen and background image for the Welcome Hub, as YouTuber Shannon Grixti demonstrates in the above video (thanks, PSLS).
Between testing the games already enhanced for PS5 Pro, we repeatedly return to the Welcome Hub page to stare at the pulsing microchip, lulled by the comforting system music, at times approaching a trance-like state. This thing did cost a lot of money; was it worth it? Who can say, but at least we have the Welcome Hub, our new digital happy place.
