Seeing the PlayStation 5 Pro hit the shelves a few weeks back was quite the treat, wasn’t it? For those who are gearheads just as much as gamers, we’ve prepared a detailed video that delves into the intricate technical side of the PS5 Pro. This deep dive explores its creation, functionality, and how it marks the beginning of an exhilarating journey in the gaming world. Take a look at the video below!
Just a heads-up: this video is a tech-focused session centered on the PS5 Pro. So don’t expect any fresh game reveals or jaw-dropping new gameplay footage.
Now, within this presentation, you’ll find explanations about what “advanced” truly means in the context of “Advanced Ray Tracing.” We also break down the differences between FLOPS and TOPS and touch on the hurdles we faced while crafting the cutting-edge machine learning hardware necessary for PSSR—the AI-powered upscaling that PS5 Pro boasts.
Towards the tail end of the presentation, I delve into something we don’t usually highlight at SIE—how the insights we’ve gained with the PS5 Pro will propel our future ambitions in endlessly expanding the boundaries of gameplay. We’ve enjoyed a stellar partnership with AMD over the years, and I’m thrilled to announce that our collaboration is set to deepen, focusing on Machine Learning-based technology for graphics and gameplay enhancement. AMD and SIE are aligned in many of their goals regarding the evolution of video gaming. Tune into the presentation to discover more about this thrilling journey!
Additionally, we hosted an encore of this talk for a crowd that included prominent journalists from Digital Foundry, IGN, and Wccftech. Be on the lookout for their take, as they’ll cover RDNA, ray tracing, and machine learning in greater detail.
