While we have heard plenty of rumors regarding the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett, we still don't have a good idea of what the consoles are capable of doing. According to a recent report, things will be going way beyond what we have seen in the most impressive games of the current generation.

　　A new report posted by a former GameFan magazine editor on ResetEra revealed that he has recently seen a tech demo of a multiplatform open-world game that is in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Scarlett and PC. This demo, which is not all that polished, runs at a solid performance and it's way ahead of games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and The Last of Us Part 2 in terms of scope, lighting and environment dynamics.

　　The demo I saw had the very best real time graphics I've ever seen. And what I mean by that is it looked like a real game you can play.

　　Not some super polished UE4 or Unity technical demo that you would see at gdc.

　　To me, there was no mistaking this for a current generation on PC or console.

　　To be clear, in terms of scope, lighting and environment dynamics, RDR2 or TLOU2 aren't even in the same time zone as this.

　　and yeah, it kinda was like a Shadowfall moment to me in that it seemed totally different from what I've been used to in the previous generation.

　　Now granted, Framerate was maybe 25 to 30-ish and it was early, early,early. But I actually said out loud WTF when I first saw it.

　　Shadows, in particular, are impressive, and the overall picture quality is solid, which should be a given, considering the hinted power of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett.

　　One thing I found really interesting was the quality of the shadows. I especially noticed there were some approx 2-3ft high bushes. When they were swaying in the wind they were casting moving shadows with fucking PERFECT detail. No shimmering or stairstepping at all.

　　And I am talking about a bush with maybe 75-100 branches and 100s of leaves on it!

　　Casting. Perfect.Fucking. Shadows.

　　Keep in mind this was just a random, whateverthefuck bush!

　　Also

　　The overall picture quality was astoundingly solid....like it used some super duper AA.

　　The game is full 2160p, but again, has no shimmering whatsoever. Just a really solid resolve to the graphics.

　　It's also been confirmed that this demo is running on Navi-based hardware, so it could be running on a PlayStation 5 devkit.

　　It was running on Navi-based hardware. So a current for the time PS5 development kit.(June 2019).

　　The PlayStation 5 console launches next year worldwide.
