Xbox One Scorpio : the creator of Ori and the Blind Forest under the spell of the console – Gaming News

Although Microsoft has decided to keep silent and not to reveal of the Xbox One Scorpio, a number of developers already know what will be able the machine. This is the case of Moon Studios (Ori and the Blind Forest), which, according to its co-founder, Thomas Mahler, is already impressed by the machine. Moreover, he expressed himself on the subject via NeoGAF.

All current consoles are based on x86 architecture comparable to that of the PC, which explains why Sony has been able to upgrade to the PS4 and design a more robust version of the machine. The Scorpio is a console next-gen, which has the advantage of being compatible with your old games. On this point, and the image of the PC, you can always enjoy your game library if you buy the console.

Now, I see that things are still a little blurry, and I think Microsoft is going to make sure to explain to people that the Scorpio is not just an update wobbly [of the Xbox One, ed] – what is the PS4 a Pro in any way – but a genuine new console, with which it is possible to use your current games.

Recently, our colleagues at Digital Foundry got their hands on an internal document detailing some of the technical aspects of the Xbox One Scorpio. The paper in question evokes, among other things, a set of first-party turning in 4K native on the console, the abandonment of the eSRAM, or the confirmation of a graphics processor 4.5 times more powerful than the model today.
