SSD is crucial especially for future engine and rendering tech, many developer requested this especially EPIC . Sony focus on this and when nuts on this side to make costume solution. 

It's really affecting the competion and the result of game design. It really matter for game engine like UE5 , but it wont matter much on old engine like UE 4 or Unity or game engine which not has any streamming data realtime. 

I'll believe it when I see it. Only few games right now require/recommend an SSD and it doesn't care what speed it is at.

UE 5 is the prove of this, but you are right, no games use this tech yet. We will have to wait and see. But on paper and developer notes next gen PC games and multiplat will require more RAM to overcome this problem or an SSD. Or a very powerful GPU and CPU to brute force the lack of IO speed. 

Of course next gen games will be available 2 to 3 years after next gen console released, from now on only 1rts party developer will use that benefit especially SOny first party (Xbox will focus on cross gen for another 2 years).
