Huge PS5 Pro update tipped to arrive in May 2026 — just in time for GTA 6
We've learned that Sony is gearing up to deliver a major PS5 Pro upgrade in 2026, but now we may know specific timing of when it may arrive — and it sets up nicely for one of the biggest upcoming game launches. Leaker DetectiveSeeds on X suggests the upcoming PS5 Pro update in 2026 is set to arrive in May, according to a PlayStation engineer. That's just in time for another major release, as the highly anticipated GTA 6 is confirmed to release on May 26. With the timing, many now speculate that GTA 6 will run at 60 FPS on PS5 Pro thanks to the software update. This would be a major upgrade over other games from developers Rockstar on PlayStation consoles, with titles such as Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V and more only ever reaching 30 FPS. Sounds like the PS5 Pro 2026 update target date is in May right now. (Per Playstation Engineer)July 13, 2025 While official specs of GTA 6 have yet to be released, a tech breakdown from Digital Foundry revealed that the second GTA 6 trailer ran on a base PS5, with 1440p resolution at 30 FPS. Notably, this wasn't on PS5 Pro, which uses PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) upscaling tech. While PSSR offers an uplift in image clarity at increased resolutions in supported PS5 games, it's the upcoming advanced graphics upscaling algorithm for PS5 Pro that Sony's lead architect Mark Cerny told Tom's Guide about that would push the performance of titles like GTA 6. This "drop-in replacement for the current PSSR" will arrive in 2026, as per Cerny's comments, but only for PS5 Pro users. It's expected to deliver even further improvements in framerate and image quality, with FSR 4 (FidelityFX Super Resolution) potentially leading the charge thanks to AMD and Sony's partnership in Project Amethyst. Now that this update is tipped to arrive next May, there's a strong indication that Sony is preparing the upgrade just in time for GTA 6, which is already the most highly anticipated game to arrive in 2026 (originally set to arrive in fall 2025). If the update brings 60 FPS and improvements, this could drive further sales for the PS5 Pro. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The PS5 Pro update is set to deliver improvements to many upcoming PS5 titles that developers can implement, but having it timed for a GTA 6 release would make PlayStation's latest powerful console all the more interesting. It could even indicate what's to come in a potential PS6. Follow Tom's Guide on Google News to get our up-to-date news, how-tos, and reviews in your feeds. Make sure to click the Follow button.

These players with Indiana ties could hear their names called during 2025 MLB draft
Two years ago, Franklin grad Max Clark was selected No. 3 overall by the Detroit Tigers. Clark was viewed as a can't-miss prospect and while his progression through the minors has been gradual — he was promoted to Double-A Erie on Monday — he's done nothing to dim his superstar status. There are no local legends heading into Sunday's 2025 MLB draft, but there are several prospects with Indiana ties who could hear their names called during the two-day draft. The draft begins Sunday with rounds 1-3 and concludes Monday with rounds 4-20. Here's a list of prospects with Indiana ties who could be drafted during the 2025 MLB Draft. The IU commit is a 6-2, 210-pound lefty with a fastball reaching 95 mph. As a senior, Barr went 3-2 with a 0.57 ERA and 76 strikeouts over 36⅔ innings. The New Albany native is a hard-throwing reliever with a sinking fastball touching 97 mph. As a junior, Biven went 5-0 with a 3.71 ERA, four saves and 36 strikeouts over 43⅔ innings. The LSU commit is an athletic left-handed outfielder. As a senior, Braun batted .500 with 48 runs scored, 42 RBIs, 11 doubles, five home runs, three triples and 12 stolen bases. The IU commit has some of the best pure stuff in the prep ranks. His fastball sits in the mid-90s, touching 97 mph. But he has to improve his command if he wants to stay a starting pitcher. Cerny, a former IU shortstop, transferred to Kentucky this offseason. As a junior, Cerny slashed .281/.386/.517 with 14 doubles, two triples, 10 home runs and six stolen bases. He's currently playing for the West Virginia Black Bears of the MLB Draft League. He's fourth overall in batting average (.337) and sixth overall with an .897 OPS (on-base plus slugging percentage). The Notre Dame commit is the son of former major league lefthander Jim Crowell. The 6-3, 191-pound lefty had a perfect 6-0 record with a miniscule 0.25 ERA and 97 strikeouts over 55 innings. At the plate, Crowell batted .375 with 32 runs scored, 24 RBIs, eight doubles, three triples, three home runs and four stolen bases. The Brownsburg grad won Big 12 Player of the Year as a senior, slashing .396/.438/.545 with 12 home runs, 50 RBIs and 15 stolen bases. More: Despite working 3 a.m. shifts, Brownsburg grad hopes to hear name in MLB draft The Louisville transfer and Jeffersonville native had a career year at IU. Dickerson and IU teammate Devin Taylor are projected to be drafted on Day 1 of the MLB draft. Dickerson slashed .314/.381/.632 with 19 home runs, 14 doubles, three triples and five stolen bases over 56 games — career highs across the board — earning Third-Team All-America honors. The Kentucky commit is a 6-1, 200-pound frame with a fastball touching 96 mph and a solid 12-6 curveball. Flores had a 7-0 record with a 2.76 ERA and 70 strikeouts over 38 innings. The IU commit won Indiana Gatorade Player of the Year after a dominant senior season, earning six wins with a 0.76 ERA and 61 strikeouts. Fisher is an athletic 6-3, 185-pound righty who also played quarterback for the football team. His fastball sits 92 to 94 and touches 95 mph. The Columbus East grad transferred to IU from Indiana State and had a breakout redshirt senior season. Gilley went 10-3 with one save over 18 appearances. He finished with a 3.54 ERA and 75 strikeouts over 68⅔ innings. Grable transferred to IU from Northwestern in 2024 but missed the entire season due to injury. Grable showed strong stuff during his return to the mound this season going 4-3 with a 4.31 ERA over 17 appearances. He finished with 65 strikeouts and just 17 walks over 56⅓ innings. Hartlaub showed steady improvement over his career, earning Second-Team All-MAC honors as a senior, going 6-2 with a 5.09 ERA and 69 strikeouts over 81⅓ innings. Logan is a plus athlete who is committed to play baseball and football at Notre Dame. He batted .389 with 57 runs scored, 31 RBIs, six doubles, two triples, seven home runs and 44 stolen bases. The Carmel native and Brebeuf Jesuit grad had a breakout redshirt junior season for Butler. Moroknek had a .372/.443/.702 slash line with 18 home runs, 16 doubles, one triple, 57 RBIs and two stolen bases. Moroknek earned All-Big East second team honors, and his 153 total bases set a new Butler program record. He transferred to Texas this offseason. Novak started 57 of 57 games as a senior, slashing .300/.392/.527 with 13 home runs, 11 doubles, 57 RBIs and 53 runs scored. The backstop committed just five errors, finishing with a .989 fielding percentage last season. Pentecost has taken a unique path to become an MLB draft prospect as a homeschooled player to NAIA Taylor. The 6-3, 200-pound right has fastball that touches 96 mph. As a senior, Pentecost went 12-2 with a 3.04 ERA and 116 strikeouts over 80 innings. Richmond has massive power potential in his 6-3, 240-pound frame. Richmond had a breakout junior season at Western Michigan before transferring to Purdue for the 2024-25 season. The sweet-swinging lefty missed time with injury, but in 35 games, Richmond batted .221 with five home runs, seven doubles, two triples, 30 RBIs and 24 runs scored. The Mississippi State commit's improved velocity has caught the eyes of MLB scouts. The 6-1, 180-pound touched 97 mph on his fastball with two quality off-speed pitches in his repertoire. Rhodes finished 4-2 with a 1.24 ERA and 88 strikeouts over 45 innings. The Wake Forest commit is one of the best pure high school hitters on this list. He's not the biggest player at 5-10, 170 pounds, but he's extremely skilled. As a senior, Stein batted .333 with 36 runs scored, 20 stolen bases, 12 RBIs, two doubles, one triple and one home run. Taylor will likely be the highest drafted player on this list. Ranked 34th on Baseball America's Top 500, Taylor has been a plus hitter for the past three seasons. As a junior, Taylor slashed .374/.494/.706 with 18 home runs, 13 doubles, two triples and 12 stolen bases.

Serie A side 'make contact' to sign ex-Rangers winger Cerny
The winger spent last season on loan at Ibrox, scoring 18 goals and providing nine assists in 52 appearances. Back at Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg, Cerny could be on the move this summer. Indeed, Torino have made initial contact to sign the 27-year-old, claims with the Italians setting their sights on the Czech Republic international.

Speaking on his future at the beginning of last month, Cerny told Czech media: "I still have no idea where I will be playing next season. "The only thing I know is that I am returning to Wolfsburg because the loan was without an option. I have a contract there for two more years. "There will be time for a club future after the national team. "I am a regular player at Wolfsburg. The club does not have a coach yet. Of course, I have some preliminary agreements, or I know what is planned for me. "I would like to get the most out of a successful season. "Contact (with Wolfsburg) has taken place, we all want to know where we stand. It has become clear what they expect from me, what I expect from them. "I have received a training plan for the summer and we are moving forward."

Vaclav Cerny approach made by Serie A club as Rangers hero's post-Ibrox future could see him link up with Scotland star
BOLSTERING the wide positions is a clear priority for Rangers this summer. But it's becoming more and more evident that last season's star winger Vaclav Cerny will not be a part of things going forward. Advertisement 2 Vaclav Cerny had a great season with Rangers Credit: Willie Vass 2 13.03.2025 Rangers v Fenerbahce: Vaclav Cerny Credit: Willie Vass The 28-year old was on loan at Rangers from Wolfsburg last season. Cerny proved a huge hit in Glasgow and was one of the Light Blues' star men in what was a tricky campaign. The loan deal didn't include either an option or obligation to by and the Czech Republic international headed back to Germany. That appears to be that as far as Cerny's association with Rangers goes, with the new regime at Ibrox looking to be focusing on other targets. Advertisement The Gers are closing in on a deal for Sheffield Wednesday winger Djeidi Gassama, while a host of other wingers included Abu Kamara and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi among those the Light Blues have been credited with an interest in signing. Cerny had been linked with a move to Turkey but nothing has yet materialised. Now, there's interest coming from Italy in the Euro 2024 star. Gianluca Di Marzio is reporting that Torino are interested in signing Cerny. Advertisement He claims that the Serie A outfit have made initial contact with Wolfsburg as they explore a deal for the winger. Like at Rangers, Torino's attacking positions are a priority this summer. Rangers boss Russell Martin opens up on transfer plans as he delivers updates on Dessers and Igamane A move to Turin would see Cerny link up with a familar face. Scotland striker Che Adams has been plying his trade with Torino for the past year. Advertisement He scored nine goals in 36 appearances in his first season in the Italian top flight last season. Torino were managed last season by former Rangers defender Paolo Vanoli. But he was dismissed following the club's 11th placed finish last season and replaced by former Lazio boss Marco Baroni.

Burning Rangers updates as Cerny in bomb squad, Hagi rejects 'extraordinary offer' and Henderson goes unclaimed
Czech Republic star Cerny is back at Wolfsburg following his prolific loan spell at Ibrox Vaclav Cerny's future at Wolfsburg has been thrown further into doubt after the club's transfer chief confirmed they are looking to reduce their squad size ahead of the new season. The Czech Republic international has returned to the Bundesliga side following his loan spell with Rangers where he netted 18 goals in all competitions, including six strikes in the run to the quarter-finals of the Europa League. Cerny is reportedly the subject of interest from Turkish duo Trabzonspor and Besiktas, with the latter said to have submitted a £6million offer for the player. Wolfsburg have just appointed Dutchman Paul Simonis as their new manager off the back of his shock KNVB Cup triumph with Go Ahead Eagles and their sporting director Sebastian Schindzielorz insists cutting down on their squad list is a priority. He told Zevener-Zeitung: "Our focus is on reducing the squad. We want to slim down." One other big name who has left Rangers this summer is Ianis Hagi. The Romanian playmaker is on the lookout for a new club after his contract at Ibrox ran out. The 26-year-old is said to have knocked back an approach from Polish outfit Legia Warsaw, with the club's transfer chief recently going on record to state that the player was simply out of their price range. And Hagi's boss at international level Mircea Lucescu, now claims that the ex Gers midfielder has snubbed an even more 'extraordinary' offer from a significant European team. Speaking to Fotbal Club (via DigiSport), he said: "We'll see what happens, another day or two. I don't want to... I spoke to him recently, I don't want to discuss it right now. "The team he could have joined was an extraordinary one, very good, in a very strong championship. He's a very good player, a talent, you just have to find his place. See where he could give the best performance. "He should play, he knows very well, he's a professional. He was about to get a very good transfer. I can't discuss it, because it's none of my business. "It wasn't about money, no. Sure, some people care about money, despite all my insistence on changing the team." Meanwhile, Ajax have confirmed the departure of midfielder Jordan Henderson. The former Liverpool captain - who has won 84 caps for England - joined the Amsterdam giants from Al-Ettifaq in January 2024 but is now a free agent after both parties mutually agreed to terminate his contract. Henderson, 35, was linked to Rangers earlier this year as a number two to Steven Gerrard prior to Russell Martin getting the job. While talk of a return to boyhood club Sunderland has never gone away, Sky Sports insist that the veteran is not a target for the Black Cats. Speaking to Ajax's website, the Premier League and Champions League winner said: "I would like to express my immense gratitude to everyone associated with Ajax for giving me the opportunity to represent this incredible institution over the past few years. To play for this club was an honour in itself. "To have the privilege of captaining it was even more so. My only regret is that we didn't deliver more success for the amazing supporters. They deserve to be celebrating major titles again, and I'm sure that time will come soon. My family and I were made to feel so welcome, not just by the club but also in the wonderful city of Amsterdam. We will always be grateful for that. "Due to the tragic events of last week, and the devastating loss of my former teammate Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva, it doesn't feel right at this moment to say or do more than share this brief statement. However, I am fully aware that I owe this club, my teammates, and the supporters a fuller and more personal thank you. "I will, of course, do that when the time feels more appropriate. For now, I want to express my appreciation to Ajax once again, as well as everyone I haven't had the chance to speak to in person yesterday, all of you who make this club so special."
