Because you need some new content to sell the new game, plus they're probably dropping PS4 limitations for the next game so the tracks will be more detailed.
I forgot about the PS4Pro - PS5Pro cross gen....
So I guess the question is:
Will GT8 be PS6 exclusive? (More than likely for 8K ready)
Or
Will GT8 be cross gen ? (PS6 and PS5 Pro)
Or
Will GT8 also be playable on PS5 ?
No doubt VR will be fully compatible on GT8, I don't see that stopping at all.
The next question is:
Will the PS6 accept PSVR2 ?
Or
Will the PS6 require that we all upgrade to PSVR3 ???
Those are the questions the bean counters will have to determine to allow maximum profitability AND lowest risk of alienating people who cannot shell out another set of hardware....
If GT8 requires me to :
Get PS6
GET PSVR3
That's a minimum of $1500... Yikes....
And then an upgrade to new sim wheels, pedals and gear shifter that's probably an additional $2200
Because I am about to outgrow my G29 now...
As much as I want GT8 to be PS6 PSVR3 exclusive:
I don't think my wife will be too happy about it.... $3700 to play a "stupid game"
Maybe it will not be a first day buy after all in the worse / best case scenario...
Maybe I will just stick to GT7 until they stop supporting it...
In my specific case, I would prefer that they do a cross gen from PS5 through PS5 .... That would allowed them to best get the maximum amount of people to buy GT8....
I hope they have a GT7 spec III release before GT8 comes out...
