The North American company hints that both consoles will be able to improve intergenerational games.
Plans for the new generation have not been fully uncovered. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X have been presenting details as the months have passed, but some doubts are still hanging in the air. This is the case of the Sony machine and the possibility that the intergenerational games that come out from now on (for example, Cyberpunk 2077) are updated with improvements when using a copy of the previous generation. Microsoft did confirm that Smart Delivery would be possible, but the Japanese have not said anything about it. Now Electronic Arts opens up that possibility on both machines.
In an investor meeting, the North American company has said that it plans to commercialize games for the present generation that are updated in the next generation for free. Without naming any of the systems, it is pointed to the platforms in the plural, although there is no express confirmation that the PlayStation 5 will allow it. "Keep in mind that this year includes the effect of the income from the launch of games for the current generation of consoles, which can also be updated for free in the next one," says Blake Jorgensen, the company's chief financial officer.
Smart Delivery, Xbox Series X technology
Xbox Series X uses a technology known as Smart Delivery, which makes it easy to upgrade Xbox One video games on the new console. Do not forget that the Redmond plan a sweet transition between both systems, so that the first video games will be released throughout the current Xbox ecosystem.
Electronic Arts, meanwhile, has indicated that it has great video games in development for the Nintendo Switch. The console has received the latest installments of the FIFA saga (although the most recent version is a Legacy Edition), as well as Unravel or FE. However, other major releases have been left out of the Kyoto hybrid.
