the future may hold.
SMOOTHER MENUS
AT L AUNCH
We’d love to see a blockbuster such as Horizon Zero Dawn 2
drop on day one of PS5, as it feels like the perfect game to
showcase PS5’s power, and rumours of a new Killzone built
around online multiplayer coming to next gen, along with a
new Battlefield and Call Of Duty, are already floating around.
We also expect PS5’s launch day to be filled with 60fps, 4K
and 4K+ cross-gen titles, such as the rumoured Assassin’s
Creed ‘Kingdom’. The chart to the right are the games
OPM’s readers want at launch...
In tenyearsfrom
now, I want to think
about how we could not
have lived without all of
those new features PS5
once introduced. I’m
hoping it will change how
we look at gaming.”
