Lot of buzzwords and PR Talk, but talk is cheap and it will be challenging for them to deliver a "next gen" leap with diminishing returns kicking in hard these days.

Will be interesting to see what they're actually able to deliver.

Next gen hardware will be fairly different than what is available currently - accent is on RT and AI in GFX pipeline, and AI enhancements throughout the whole game pipeline.
