Backwards compatibility has always been a minefield of assorted topics. There?s straight emulation, ports, remasters, remakes, and even full-on reimaginings. Even with the launch of the PS4 Pro, developers had to manually code updates to improve their games for the more powerful console. Real-time AI upscaling could completely redefine how PS5 backwards compatibility works though. Instead of next-gen ?versions? of the game, we could see games automatically upscaled to meet the power that?s possible under the new consoles.
Now this news comes out of Microsoft (bear with me, I?ll tie it back into PlayStation). In 2018, Microsoft acquired Playfab. Playfab develops various tools that utilize the cloud infrastructure to assist developers. Playfab uses Microsoft?s Azure network to provide various tools to developers that wouldn?t be possible without the power of the cloud.
