The PlayStation 5 scene is heating up as more PS5 Trailers are released for Sony's next-gen console games, with today's video being Ride 4 from Milestone scheduled to launch on January 21, 2021! 🏍
Check out the Ride 4 PS5 Trailer video below alongside details on how the console's SSD and DualSense Controller features will make you feel like you're on the track from Producer Luigi Crocetta, to quote:
Every new console is a whole new universe to explore and it is always so inspiring when you can mix new hardware power and technologies with the creativity and the experience of your development team. That’s why we’re all so thrilled that Ride 4 is coming to PS5 on January 21, 2021.
PS5’s specifications are incredibly inviting for a racing franchise like Ride, where players expect to experience the excitement of riding a 200 HP bike in fast-paced, adrenaline-filled races all over the world.
We will now be able to deliver a smoother gameplay experience at 60FPS with a resolution up to 4K. That means players will be able to enjoy their beloved bikes with the highest quality for shaders and textures, with a never before seen level of detail for both bikes and environments. Your riding experience will also be more precise, satisfying and natural.
And all races — both online and offline — will be even more compelling as up to 20 riders will be competing for victory!
Thanks to PS5’s SSD, loading times will be significantly reduced. That means less waiting time before races, but also a better gameplay experience during them. That’s because the SSD will enable faster streaming of textures, allowing us to better immerse players in our environments while they roar around tracks at 300 km/h.
Last, but definitely not least, Ride 4 fans will experience the power of PS5’s DualSense wireless controller. Gas and brake levers will have their own resistance to transmit the same sensations as their real-life counterparts. We are also...

To quote from Sony Global Marketing VP Mary Yee: With PlayStation 5, our goal is to put the player at the heart of the gaming experience. From the DualSense wireless controller’s adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, to the ultra-high speed SSD, to the immersion felt with Tempest 3D AudioTech engine, we want players to lose themselves in every PS5 game.
To provide in-game examples of these benefits, we asked developers around the world to share their thoughts on how the PS5 console’s ultra-high speed SSD and Tempest 3D AudioTech engine will shape the future of gaming. You can see some of the games that will leverage these features in our latest video:
PlayStation 5 – Breathtaking Immersion
Experience lightning-fast loading, deeper immersion and an all-new generation of games on PS5.
“Beyond near-instant loading and fast-travel, the SSD and its speed allow us to more quickly load and display more detailed assets. This should lead to the city looking better than ever, and this is just the beginning for our team unlocking those possibilities. It’s a fundamental change that we can’t wait to take more advantage of in the years to come.”— Brian Horton // Creative Director, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
“As developers [of Demon’s Souls], we are already changing the way we think about...

Resident Evil 7
Step into a Resident Evil experience quite unlike anything you’ve ever encountered as the series embarks on an ambitious approach that plunges you neck-deep into an adrenaline pumping nightmare.

Set among the isolated rural estates of America’s deep South, nothing is quite as it seems and nowhere is truly safe.
Resident Evil 7 biohazard is available until November 30, 2020.
Final Fantasy XV
Join Prince Noctis and his closest friends as they fight against the empire in an effort to take back their fallen kingdom. A unique fantasy world teeming with exotic wildlife, nefarious beasts and ancient treasures lies in wait.
