Are you suggesting that 10 million PS5 console owners are all going to buy EDO?
116 million ps4 consoles were sold and yet console players only account for 1/3 of the playerbase of ED.
The major installed base is PS4 original, which doesn't run (realistic speaking) Elite Odyssey using the current engine.
Like I said before the original has less than 1.8Tflops, and PS4pro has 4.2tflops.
Maybe ps4pro could handle, but If I'm not wrong, they can not release a game that runs just in ps4 pro.
Same with Microsoft consoles. Xbox One original has 1.4tflops and Xbox One X has 6.
They COULD try to run in last gen "pro" consoles, but there is a agreement which prevent to make games just for the 'pro version'.
I didn't know that 1/3 was PS4 players. That makes the decision even harder.
It's gonna be a pure business, and it's not gonna be good for everyone (unfortunately).
