SONY PS5 The home game console has changed the style of the previous PS4, adopting a vertical shape; in terms of color matching, PS5 is consistent with the previously released new DualSense controller controller, using black and white dual-color design . It is worth mentioning that this time the SONY PS5 home game console will launch two different versions-the standard version and the ultra-thin digital version with the optical drive configuration removed. The launch of the digital version of PS5 may mean the passing of the "CD-ROM era" in the game field, and future gamers who want to start new games as soon as possible may only choose to buy the digital version.

. Do you still remember the new DualSence controller that SONY officially released in early April? In addition to reducing the weight of the controller and improving battery life In addition to the DualShock 4 function, the new DualSense handle adapted for PS5 also adds the L2 and R2 button "auto trigger" and its own microphone device. Players can directly use the handle to initiate voice chat. At the same time, this handle further supports the player's tactile feedback function, through which the player's biological information can be monitored. This function also enables many FPS first-person perspective games to bring players an unprecedented "immersive" gaming experience.

In addition to the appearance and controller configuration, the most important point for gamers is the performance upgrade of the SONY PS5. Regarding the specific configuration of the PS5, SONY announced the wind in advance as early as March this year. On the whole, the biggest "progress" of SONY PS5 compared to PS4 is that it uses AMD Zen 2 CPU with up to 8 3.5 GHz cores. Compared with the 8-core 1.6 GHz PS4, the "efficiency" of PS5 operation is absolutely beyond doubt.

Another point worth mentioning is that the combination of AMD RDNA 2 GPU and AMD Zen 2 CPU used in SONY PS5 gives PS5 a powerful new feature-"Light track". The function of "ray tracing" is to more realistically simulate the performance of light in the environment, and through this function, the visual effects in the game will be promoted to a new level.
and MicroSoft's new home game console Xbox Series X, which is scheduled to be released in the same year, are "on the same stage". SONY PS5 naturally cannot "give up". In addition to the CPU upgrade and the new "ray tracing" function, the PS5 is also equipped with a dedicated 825 GB SSD and also supports NVMe SSD expansion-not only expands the storage capacity of the PS5, but also further improves the loading speed of the PS5.For example, the map can be read faster in the game.

This time, we have selected 10 games worth looking forward to officially announced from the SONY PlayStaion 5 "The Future of Gaming" conference. Let’s take a look.
"Devil's Soul: Remastered Edition"

For the term "soul", presumably gamers will not be unfamiliar with the word "soul", even if they have not personally experienced a few "soul" masterpieces, they are relatively special The game mode is slightly heard. When it comes to the starting point of the "soul" game, you have to mention "Devil's Soul" launched by From Software Games in 2009.

In the hearts of many "soul" gamers, "Demon's Soul" can be regarded as the debut of the "soul" game Starting point-in the "soul" game, it is not relying on level suppression; no matter how high the level is, you must always be careful when facing every boss. Every operation error will lead to a failure to pass the level. The competition with the boss is The biggest reason why many "soul" players are keen on this type of game. The battle between
and Boss is the most fascinating part of the "Soul" game works | Via IGN
At the same time, different "weeks" settings in Soul games have also become a major feature of this type of game, requiring players to be in the game. Make your own choices and judgments. Sometimes your choice will change the direction of the entire game story, but sometimes no matter what choice you make, the final ending cannot be changed. How to cleverly "man conquer the sky" and change the ending is also the game of "soul" players One of the fun.

From "Devil's Soul" to the later " Blood" and "Dark Soul" trilogy, these game works should be the initial understanding of many old players for the soul system. The exploration of soul games is endless, and at the recent SONY PlayStation 5 conference, soul games ushered in the next stop-the remake version of soul ancestor "Demon Soul" is about to be launched on the PlayStation 5 platform.

After 11 years of transformation, what will "Devil's Souls: Remake" bring about ? It is reported that "Devil's Soul: Remastered Edition" will continue the original core "soul" gameplay, but the biggest difference lies in the improvement of image quality and accuracy. "Devil's Soul: Remake" is also compared to the originalSome new story lines will be developed, which will enable old players to find the long-lost "soul" game experience in the game, while also bringing freshness to them.

In this way, "Devil's Soul: Remake" may be the most anticipated game masterpiece announced at the SONY PlayStation 5 conference. But while looking forward to the publication of this work, we also need to think about a question: Is the "new" really better than the "old"? The remake of "World of Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne", which was launched at the beginning of this year, also attracted the attention of many old players at the beginning of the announcement; but it really entered the game world of "World of Warcraft III Remake", which brought most of the players But only "disappointment"-the screen accuracy is far below the high standards in the promo. Therefore, for "Devil's Soul: Remastered", perhaps we should remain on the sidelines. But there is no doubt that the upcoming "Devil's Soul: Remake" on the PlayStation 5 platform will surely lead to a new "soul fever".
