Forums - Sony - Sony Improving PS4 SDK Tools, R&D Team Committed To Innovation

For any competitive gaming hardware to survive under such harsh market conditions, improvements need to be  made consistently. Sony are currently working on further improving PlayStation’s SDK, tools and applications so that developers can make the best possible games.

 

According to a job listing on PlayStation’s official website, the PlayStation research and development team are looking for an engineer who will learn the ins and outs of the PlayStation SDK and help developers understand how they can utilize its full potential. The candidate will also work on new features for the platform with past examples including improvements to PlayStation Network SDK along with companion devices and Cloud services.

 

The listing also lets us know that the R&D team is committed to innovation and 10% of the engineer’s time will be dedicated to learning new technology and building sample prototypes. Another job listing for a Software Engineer indicates that Sony are working on a new suite of multimedia applications. The candidate will need to think about implementation of new elements, or improvements to the application.

Right. Sony ain't sitting on their behinds while Microsoft is getting better with their stuff. This is going to be an interesting generation.

Yes. It's a good thing. Some think it's exclusive to one side though



I've noticed. LOL The Direct X12 and the 10% from the Kinect to free up some space for higher fidelity. I was wondering why people wouldn't think Sony would do the same thing. You know...not only improving their SDK's for better optimization, but just plain overall make their hardware more sufficient. I know they're in the lead, but they ain't just sitting there like, "yeah we ain't changing or doing s#$t! We got this"! Hehe
