The last gens the architecture changed heavily from generation to generation. Next gen will most likely also see an X86 based system, which imho makes BC very likely. Sony can easily miss out on hardware sales for PS4 if it benefits the PS5. The sooner they start building their future the better. It could even benefit PS4 sales late in the cycle, if people would know all their games would also work on the next new system. I can’t imagine they’d leave the field of BC to MS, when the main reason for no BC on PS4, the Cell’s difficult architecture, is not a thing anymore. |
yup backward compatible will be there, and to add one more reason is that many people in this gen have moved on and built up a digital library which they cannot sell, also I wont be surprise if sony went ahead and emulated PS3 as well.
