Ubisoft Executive Director Comments on Next-Gen Sony and Microsoft Consoles, “Super Sexy”

The talks of the next generation of video game consoles has been underway for quite some time now as Sony revealed numerous spec about their next-gen PlayStation earlier this year and Microsoft revealed the specs for Project Scarlett during their presentation at E3. While on the surface, the two competing consoles look to be very similar in terms of what was shown in hardware and power. However, that doesn’t mean they aren’t both significantly more powerful than what we’re currently playing on this gen.

The Executive Director for Ubisoft in the EMEA region Alain Corre has commented on what we’ve seen so far, and what Ubisoft developers have been able to work with. Corre notes that there’s really no telling whether or not the next-gen consoles will be the last generation of consoles, simply stating “We don’t know what the fans will want, we don’t know how streaming will increase…”

Corre then goes on to explain just how the new technology housed within these new systems are cutting edge and “are a really major leap from the current generation.” Corre then explains how these new innovations in tech can help create new and exciting experiences for gamers by developing new boundaries for AI interactions, reducing load times and the leap from 4K to 8K resolution.

“The new technologies will provide new ways for fans to exchange data. And there are plenty of other new elements to improve the quality of gaming. Microsoft spoke about SSD and the fact they want to reduce the loading times – which we like very much because we’re players too! It’s a very important topic and it’s a revolution, this thing. On the graphics side, it’s still improving because you will see a difference from 4K to 8K. There are things they are proposing that will make these machines super sexy for the fans to look forward to.”

Regardless, these new consoles do seem to be radically improved from what we’re currently playing on. And that’s not to say what we’re playing on is bad. While graphics and realism in video games might not see a drastic change, the new tech could allow us gamers to experience more lively worlds, more in-depth areas to explore and cut-down on loading times and loading in graphics significantly.

While there’s been no official console unveiling for either company, Microsoft is has announced that we’ll see Scarlett in the holiday of 2020, with no word from Sony when we’ll see their next iteration of the PlayStation console.
