Xbox Series X: Developers will compensate for any disadvantage between SSDs
Invited to discuss the topic in the Iron Lords podcast, William Stillwell, current director of Microsoft's Mixed Reality program and formerly responsible for the backward compatibility of Xbox One and XCloud, has expressed his views on the PlayStation 5 SSD technology and how much faster this can be compared to the solution adopted by the Xbox Series X.
Stillwell, specifying to speak on his behalf, said: "I want to say two things. One, I understand that it is a marketing factor and it is a determining factor, I think I have already said previously I was really impressed with what they did with the PS5 architecture and I think they will be able to do exceptional things. However I don't think it is very different from what can be done on Xbox Series X, I am very confident in the team I will also say that I reserve the right to wake up smarter tomorrow and if someone proves I'm wrong then we will learn. The only thing I am sure of is never to underestimate the ability of developers to take advantage of or circumvent it. , but this is valid on both sides. "
In short, for the Microsoft Mixed Reality manager, developers will play a fundamental role even with respect to the hardware of the individual consoles. Waiting to see the first party games at work on Xbox Series X, Twitch has publicized the date of the new PlayStation 5 event.
