The Next Generation Possibilities

We’re only halfway through this generation of consoles. Everyone is going mental that already there is a new generation of consoles being talked about. Even questioning the validity of having this generation the PS5/SX in the first place with most games being able to be played on older hardware. This generation actually feels more like a Pro upgrade. In terms of the features it’s brought and nothing revolutionary in terms of visuals but it’s been acceptable.

The Xbox team has now come out and said that their ‘next generation’ console is going to be a big leap. It’s rumoured to have something to do with the cloud. The next innovation for consoles is allowing for the scope of games to be as big as the developer wants them to be. Getting rid of SSD storage requirements and using the cloud in such a way to utilise that theoretically. That’s my belief.

If anybody could drive that innovation its Sony and Xbox. Limiting wait times for playing games off the bat. Allowing people to just have 4K 60FPS/120FPS. That’ll be one of the ambitions of the next generation of consoles.

It really is going to be interesting where they go.
