Ubisoft says all old games will play on next gen PlayStation and Xbox
We are all set for the release of the upcoming next generation consoles from Microsoft and Sony. The Sony PlayStation 5 and the Microsoft Xbox Series X are set to release on Holiday 2020 and will feature backward compatibility. Backward compatibility means players will be able to play old games from previous consoles on the upcoming ones. And now Ubisoft CEO,*Yves Guillemot, has spoken on the matter and said that the ability to play old games will help the industry grow.
“Those consoles will be running almost all the back catalog of the previous consoles,” said Guillemot. “It will be something new in the industry, it will help the old generation to continue to be big consoles on the market in the years to come … it will actually grow the market a lot.” He was commenting on how the new consoles will benefit the gaming community.*“The potential of the new consoles “is really high,” Guillemot added. “Players will be able to be very impressed by the quality of what those new consoles will bring to the market.” Sony PlayStation 5 specifications The Sony PlayStation 5 is likely to come with a custom AMD Zen 2 CPU with a custom AMD GPU that supports ray-tracing and 3D audio technology. The memory of the upcoming PS5 is still not revealed but it does have SSD storage. It carries HDR support and now even supports 8K resolution. The Sony PS5 will also have an upgraded controller for next-gen gaming and a Blu-ray player built in.
