A couple of days ago, the company Epic games revealed the world the latest version of its engine – Unreal engine 5. The novelty caused a wave of heated discussions. Firstly, regular users were finally able to get acquainted with the real possibilities Playstation 5. And secondly, company Tima Sweeney announced close collaboration with Sony. The latter, of course, entailed a lot of talk. Players are interested in how new graphics technologies will show themselves on Xbox Series X and what does all this mean for a future race between Sony and Microsoft.
Last night we talked about comments Aaron Greenberg of Microsoft, who noted that he was looking forward to being able to see Unreal engine 5 in the “most powerful console in the world,” also known as Xbox Series X. However, it seems that such a demonstration will have to wait some more time.
Portal Kotaku contacted Epic games and asked them for a comment regarding support Unreal engine 5 both consoles. In response, a company representative said that the technical demo was collected exclusively under Playstation 5However, the entire technological foundation is designed including Xbox Series X. When Epic games directly asked about how the demonstration shown earlier feels on the Microsoft console and whether it can be run there, the answer came next:
“We did not run this tech demo on the Xbox Series X“
In turn Microsoft while sticking to some vague wording. The American corporation only notes that the overall quality of the graphic effects on the next-generation consoles should match what we saw during the presentation Unreal engine 5.
“The picture quality demonstrated by the Unrel Engine 5 technical demo is what consumers should expect from next-generation gaming systems. Developers around the world, including most of our 15 internal studios, are now using Unreal Engine to create new projects. We look forward to the upcoming collaboration with Epic and the moment when our studios will work with Unreal 5 after its release in 2023, “Microsoft commented on the situation.
Himself Tim Sweeneyanswering the question about the difference between Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X, preferred to get away from direct statements. The president Epic games explained jokingly that “loves everyone equally and cannot choose pets“. Such an answer is unlikely to surprise anyone, given that Unreal engine is a toolkit used to create projects for a variety of systems, including solutions Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo.
Given the above, we are faced with a number of interesting questions. Till Microsoft takes a wait and see attitude Sony together with Epic games demonstrate the fruits of teamwork. If technodemo Unreal engine 5 really shows true power Playstation 5, in this case, now it remains only to guess what answer is able to offer Xbox Series X. Here it’s also reasonable to recall the proprietary SSD in the system from Sonywhich awarded very flattering praise from Tima Sweeney.
Now it’s most reasonable to wait for the first demonstrations of games from internal studios on Xbox Series X and Playstation 5. Lineup Event Microsoftwill take place in July. A show Sonyaccording to rumorsworth expecting in the first half of June.
Both consoles should go on sale by the end of this year.
