Horizon Forbidden West is also coming to PS4

[Gohlad]

Additionally, we know that the PS4 community will transition to PS5 at different times, and we're happy to announce PS4 versions of some of our exclusives. Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy A Big Adventure, and Horizon Forbidden West will also launch on PS4. While these three games were designed to take advantage of PS5 and its unique next-gen features like the ultra-high-speed SSD and DualSense controller, PS4 owners will also be able to enjoy these experiences when they launch. The PS4 digital versions of launch games include a free upgrade on both PS5 consoles, while the PS4 disc versions of these games include a free upgrade on the PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-Ray disc drive.

What happened with Sony and their generations? Someone higher up must've slammed their fist in the table?

 

[Khanimus]

"WE BELIEVE IN GENERATIONS"

 

[Halbrand]

Sounds awful

But some moments in the trailer did look current gen to me

 

[Levitates]

no reason to buy a PS5 then

 

[zombiejames]

What a huge letdown.

 

[AzerPhire]

Hahahahahahaha oh wow. Lots of crow to be eatin by all you PS fanboys who said these games could t be scaled down.

 

[Weebos]

Yo what? Should I just buy a Pro lol?

Nope. I'll stick with my PS4 for 6 more years.

 

[Shark]

Legitimately the worst sales pitch for a console I can recall. Buy a PS5 because...it's been 7 years?

Any minute now the penny will drop on the OT

No, it was just a lie for marketing purposes.

 

[xtib81]

Bummer. Jim Ryan is full of shit

 

[bsigg]

Like Xbox, you'd pretty much be fine waiting until 2022 to move to the new consoles.

 

[Searsy82]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

[Deleted member 50232]

I'm sure people will be just as critical to Sony as they were to MS....

 

[Lifejumper]

Why?

 

[Midas]

Yo what? Should I just buy a Pro lol?

No, a Pro is $399, just like the PS5.

 

[gifyku]

What about the experiences only enabled by the pcie4 ssd?

 

[Deleted member 6235]

great news tbh

 

[lucablight]

This is a bigger betrayal than the game going to Xbox lol.

 

[PlayerOne]

I feel like that trailer is gonna get downgraded so bad.

 

[JoJo'sDentCo]

HUGE bummer

Sony did what they always do. They put out messaging to get hype in the moment and then face consequences later on when they can shroud their retraction in awesome news.

 

[Zippo]

Not buying a PS5 anytime soon. Pointless.

Somehow they're making me not want to buy a PS5

 

[JusDoIt]

Disappointing.

 

[Draper]

The fuck is the point of the PS5 currently then?

 

[Couscous]

So much for the 'we believe in generations' PR bullshit.

 

[g-m1n1]

I get it: they want to sell more games and a free upgrade will push some PS5 sales later on.

But i was hoping a game developped with the SSD in mind.

 

[Scarface]

oh jesus

 

[BackwardsSuggestions]

Boo! How dare they cater for all the families who can't afford the PS5 in the first year!

More people get to enjoy these games. It's not as if the PS5 version will look the same as the PS4 version.

 

[strife85]

yeah, I prefer sony to ms, but at least ms has the balls to be honest from the get go.

 

[MegaSackman]

We've been fooled lol

 

[tatwo]

Disappointed
