Sony’s more powerful version of the PlayStation 4 — also known as the “PlayStation 4.5” and “PlayStation 4K” — is expected to be announced prior to the launch of PlayStation VR this October, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal.

The upgraded PS4 will reportedly be able to play 4K resolution content, according to the report, and deliver “a richer gaming environment, including a high-end virtual-reality experience.”
