According to Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO, Jim Ryan, it was never an easy decision.
"3D audio and the controller's tactile feedback support are also elements that, after testing, will leave you surprised at how big the changes are". The latter is presumed to be based on Navi 20, as both Sony and Microsoft confirmed that their respective next-gen consoles will support ray tracing on the hardware level, a feature that is now not available on any Navi GPUs for the PC.
"There's more to the PS5 than the traditional game consoles that are unique".
It is important to give off a sense of consistency for products within the PlayStation brand. While it runs well with the previous controller, there is no going back after you experience the detailed road surface via haptic control and play using the adaptive triggers. "We haven't announced the bigger differences yet".
PlayStation 5 is set to launch during the 2020 holiday season.
Sony consoles had, up to that point, always been released first in Japan, even if just by a few days such as in the case of PS3. "There are over 100 million PlayStation 4 owners - there is a community there", he added. "It is a must for anyone who sees [the logo] to immediately and positively think, "That's PlayStation". "We have a duty to keep them happy, interested, and engrossed".
Ryan previously claimed the platform holder's ambition is to transition players from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 "at a scale and pace that we've never delivered on before".
In the interview, which was translated from Japanese by Gematsu, Ryan briefly speaks about the newly released PS5 logo, which has attracted huge attention on Instagram this week.
"We have to come up with new appeals".
I can not comment on the timing of release or launch markets.
Finally, Ryan said the PS5 launch in Japan won't be delayed like the PS4's launch was.
There were justified reasons for this choice, but nowadays I believe that it wasn't a good idea.
