"PS5 Pro will not be available in some countries (which presently includes India) where 6GHz wireless band used in IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) has not yet been allowed," the company said in an official statement Friday.
The 6Ghz spectrum has been contested between technology firms and telecom operators in the country, with the former seeking its allocation for Wi-Fi and the latter wanting the same for 5G and 6G services.
According to a Financial Express report from last month, the Indian government is likely to reserve a portion of the 6Ghz spectrum for telecom companies to expand 5G and 6G services in the country.
The PS5 Pro was announced in September and went on sale in select markets on November 7. The console comes with hardware upgrades over the PS5, packing improved RDNA graphics.
