Optimistic.
When they wanted to dodge talk about PSVR or the Cobra MK4 we got very similar statements.
If Odessey counts as a "game", and not a PS4-DLC upgrade, we may only get the minimum PS5-compatible required for certification. If it does count purely as a PS4-DLC then it may not even need that, and may not even be downloadable on the PS5 (via the store).
If anyone is like me, the path is going to be:
- buy PS5 / Xbox (whatever the sequence X's and S's is) Oct/Nov 2020
- shift all content to new console
- sell / store old console
- Elite playable? (not|visible on store)
- Odessey launches... 2021
Seems to me game is doomed
(tm) on PS5 with current statements. A community manager should really jump onto the PS4/Xbox forums to clarify, but not holding my breath on that

If it's not playable on PS5 at all, then thats it for me
(or fire up my old PC account).
