At the launch of Sony's "Road to PS5" on Wednesday, lead developer Mark Cerny said that "almost all" the 100 most popular PlayStation 4 games will be compatible with the next-generation console. That does not restore much of the confidence in the catalog, and after two days of uncertainty, the Sons clarified the statement on Friday: "We believe that a maximum of 4,000 + PS4 will be played on the PS5," Hackaki Nishino of Sony said. says the PlayStation Blog
Tony said he expects the back-up games to be accompanied by a "boost in frequency" on the PS5, which will offer significantly higher or higher pricing and higher resolutions. "The company is reviewing PS4 games" topic by topic "to ensure compatibility with the PS5. The Sony has inspected hundreds of games so far – and will be exploring thousands more as the holiday approaches to console 2020 release approaching.
More rebuilding is expected "in the coming months," Tony said.
In a statement on Wednesday, Cerny explained that the PlayStation 5 incorporates the internal logic of the PS4 and PS4 Pro systems, which makes back-up possible. However, he did not mention the compatibility with the PS5 backlash for adult PlayStation games – PS4 titles only.
That is contrary to Microsoft's approach; it has already promised four generations of comeback in line with its next console, the Xbox Series X. The Xbox Series X will also support saving generations when it is released during the 2020 holidays.
