Sony Corporation ha tenuto nelle scorse ore un evento in cui ha potuto mostrare, anche se in minima parte, quelle che sono le potenziali della sua console di prossima generazione.
Nel video che potete trovare nel tweet allegato a questa news, infatti, vengono messi a confronto i tempi di caricamento di PlayStation 4 Pro e della fantomatica “PlayStation 5” con Spider-Man, esclusiva dell’attuale ammiraglia di Sony sviluppata da Insomniac Games.
Il salto prestazionale, ovviamente, è notevole visto che la nuova console di Sony promette veramente faville anche se, chiaramente, stiamo parlando di prestazioni su un gioco di questa generazione:

Ecco alcune informazioni svelate durante l’evento ricordandovi che PlayStation 5 non vedrà la luce prima di aprile 2020.
- The two keywords for the future direction of PlayStation are “immersive” and “seamless.”
- Next-generation console: “Immersive” experience created by dramatically increased graphics rendering speeds, achieved through the employment of further improved computational power and a customized ultra-fast, broadband SSD.
- PlayStation streaming: Through the evolution of “Remote Play” and “PlayStation Now,” provide a seamless game experience anytime, anywhere.
- Remote Play: Turns PlayStation 4 (PS4), which is expected to reach 100 million units in cumulative sales this calendar year, into a streaming game server, providing streaming content at the closest point to users.
- PlayStation Now: Provides immersive game experiences to users regardless of whether they own a PS4 console at all.
Sony will pursue its mission to make PlayStation “The Best Place to Play” by leveraging the latest computing, streaming, cloud, and 5G technologies, together with excellent content.
- As part of these efforts, Sony agreed to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Microsoft Corp. (Microsoft) to collaborate on the development of cloud solutions, including game streaming services.
