Playstation 5 will beat all competitors on the way. While the current console generation boasts many high-quality titles, Sony and Microsoft have been working for some time on what the successors to the current Playstation 4 and Xbox One will be. Over the past few months, we’ve seen some of the features of these new systems that will be introduced in stores over the next year.
The latest news comes from the voice of Sony President Kenichiro Yoshida, who stated in statements in The Wall Street Journal that the presumed PlayStation 5 will be designed for hardcore gamers. These words give reason to believe that the Japanese company’s new console will have an outstanding graphics performance, as well as being supplied by a catalogue of high-quality games, both exclusive and “third party”, from external vendors designed to delight players around the world.
PlayStation 5 Graphics Performance
In other words, he claims that the future PS5 will be able to process 8K graphics and greatly reduce loading times, as criticized in the current generation. However, as the boss realizes, it will be a trendy system designed specifically for the players of all time. Especially those who have played the company’s titles since 1994, when the first PlayStation came onto the market. Users who have enjoyed everything from the highly acclaimed Metal Gear Solid III to the latest God of War, as well as other outstanding titles such as Fumito Ueda’s Shadow of the Colossus or The Last of Us, the second part of which promises to stylishly close the current generation of game consoles. The ultimate goal will be to please players who are “obsessed with the latest technologies and graphics,” admits Yoshida.
So Sony wants the next PS to keep the company at the top of the market. Not to mention that the PS4 has been crowned the undisputed winner of the generation by selling nearly 100 million consoles. Clearly above the then figures of its big brother PS3 (87.4 million according to the company).
But there are all signs that Sony won’t have it easy from 2020. Google Stadia will be added to the well-known competition between Japanese Nintendo and American Microsoft and its Scarlett project, which the president of Sony continues to regard as its main competitor.
The Silicon Valley-based company’s ambitious project will try to revolutionize the world of video games with its streaming service. But Yoshida doesn’t seem too worried about the entry of this new competitor, which he calls a long-term threat.
