We’re still waiting for Sony to unveil the PS5 after missing the February window, and fans are worried about the details of the next generation console. Microsoft unveiled the Xbox Series X at last year’s Game Awards and dropped even more details on the hardware specifications last week, adding pressure to Sony to follow suit.
Even though the console maker has been quiet, the studios developing games for the platform haven’t done so, throwing out bits of information that confirm exactly what is in store when the PS5 comes out this holiday season. .
Talk to Official PlayStation Magazine, Luca Dalco, head of the LKA studio (developer of psychological horror titles) The City of Lights and Martha is dead) touched on a feature that hasn’t been touched on yet, describing the capabilities of the PS5 in terms of texel density.
In game terms, texel density refers to the textures of the assets that exist in the game world, from the environment to the characters, and everything in between. In cases of low texel density, the surface of a 3D object may appear blurred or stretched, while a higher texel density results in sharp, crisp 3D assets, thanks to the higher texture details.
“The specs for the PS5 are incredibly exciting – especially for us, the extra graphics power and the inclusion of the raytracing architecture. Our studio has come a long way in four years and Martha Is Dead will strive to realizing photorealism. We are excited to see the next generation of new generation hardware to help us bring our vision to players, “said Dalco.
“We have worked hard to use the highest resolution textures possible on PS4; however, PS5 will allow us to use an incredible density of texels, up to 4096px / m – which means that the visual will be fully detailed as well top This is one of the most significant advancements in visual ability that we have expected. “
In the meantime, there are ways to extract more juice from your current PS4 and PS4 Pro, which will make waiting for the PS5 a little easier.
