PS4 (even the Pro) cannot play 4K Blu-rays. I'll predict that the PS5 won't be powerful enough to handle 8K AV2 video or whatever ends up coming out.

PS4 Pro has the power to play 4k blu rays but doesn’t have the capability due to either the drive or licensing fee.

Power isn’t the issue as the Xbox One S is equivalent to a base PS4 and handles 4k discs fine.
