The former president of Sony Interactive Entertainment writes an article in which he makes public the first impressions of the developers on PS5.
The next generation of consoles will arrive at the end of this year 2020 that is about to begin, with the new Xbox Series X already presented in society and lacking the final design of PlayStation 5. However, it is common knowledge that many developers They are already working with her, all of whom are delighted with her hardware, Shuhei Yoshida said.
PS5, "developer friendly"
The former president of Sony Worldwide Studios, replaced by Hermen Hulst -ex of Guerrilla Games-, has written an article in the Japanese magazine Dengeki PlayStation in which he says that the feelings of the developers is that it is extremely easy to create video games for PlayStation 5. It emphasizes the idea that if the studies do not have to spend so much time understanding the hardware, they can use more to develop the software, a virtue, the simplicity, which PlayStation 4 already has, but that seems to be even more noticeable in the Sony's next console.
Yoshida believes that this simplicity will pay off one year after the launch of PlayStation 5, hoping to see some of the best video games already 12 months after they hit the market. It should be noted that this virtue is not trivial, since precisely its absence was one of the reasons for the slow start of PlayStation 3. According to the developers, Sony's third generation cell processor made it a hell to create games for her, Xbox 360 being in clear advantage not only temporary, having launched almost a year earlier.
Finally, and as a curiosity, Yoshida mentions that throughout the next generation we will see an emergence of Asian studies outside Japan that are going to create some interesting titles, being from countries like China or Malaysia, where as we already knew not long ago , Sony has established a new study.
