Sony’s upcoming gaming console, the PlayStation 5, will likely have to break new ground if it wants to be the lead platform for 4K gaming.
In a recent interview with the Daily Express, “WWE 2K18” executive producer Mark Little talked about the problems that developers are facing because of the limited storage space in Blu-ray discs, and he has a suggestion for next-gen console producers like Sony and Microsoft. Why don’t they improve the storage media on the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Scarlett?
"Literally, having blu-rays as our media is challenging, because the advent of 4K gaming means everything is getting better and bigger and bigger, and we try to add more content every year," Little noted. "One of the challenges we have every year is how do we try to fit everything on to a blu-ray, and then how do you load it fast enough, because you're literally talking 50GBs of data.”
"It seems like a funny problem to have, but it is one of those challenges we face, and we talk to the hardware guys about it and they're like, 'yeah, that's hard,'" he added.
This is now a common problem for developers as games continue to evolve. In fact, “Red Dead Redemption 2” is said to require about 105 GB of storage space, and that will likely increase due to patches. Games like “Halo 5” aren’t that far behind with over 90 GB.
Gamers will likely see more and more games in dual-layered and triple-layered Ultra HD Blu-rays in the future, but they are just short-term solutions to the problem. Going digital remains the best option, but some gamers still prefer to own a psychical copy of the game.
Right now, there doesn’t seem to be a clear solution to this problem so it will be interesting to see how Sony will address this in the PlayStation 5.
