Despite thePS5being out now for over 18 months it is fair to say, I think, that we’ve still not seen anywhere near what the console is capable of in terms of graphics fidelity.

And now we’ve just got another tantalising glimpse of the graphics that could very well be heading to PS5 consoles this generation, with the maker of online multiplayer battle royale game PUGB using Unreal Engine 5 tobuild their new virtual influencer, Ana.

Now, of course, I think it is fair to say that having entire worlds and casts of characters built with that level of detail is well off the cards – even thoughwe’ve already seen how impressiveUnreal Engine 5 is with environments. But I cantotallysee this level of graphical fidelity make it into pre-rendered cut scenes and used tactically when all of the PS5 console’s hardware can be focussed onjustdelivering pockets of this graphical awesomeness.

I think we’ve already seen that Ana-level graphical fidelity is not pie-in-the-sky stuff at all thanks toThe Matrix Awakens experienceand theUnreal Engine 5 experience, both of whichactually runon the console’s hardware. This level of fidelity absolutelyispossible then on PS5 and I believe we will absolutely see it in some capacity this generation.

We just need game developers to start releasing games that use the Unreal Engine 5 platform, which right now looks like we’ll start seeing from next year. Here’s hoping characters in those games can look as realistic as Ana, even if they are restricted in usage and kept for key realism-building in-game sections, such as cut scenes.
