Oh please no. I’m not going to buy an overpriced console just to play their future games.

The high seas for a PlayStation 6 exclusive release? First, might be a while before piracy on a new console is a viable option, second, an emulator won’t be able to run it for years.

You won’t be able to pirate the PS6. Not unless technology gets really fucking gnarly by the time it releases so you can download hardware. You’d have to rely on real theft.

Can’t really pirate a game on PC if it’s never released on PC.

Not true. Plenty of Switch exclusives emulate super well on PC.

There’s a massive difference between a Switch and a Playstation. We’re nowhere near emulation of a PS5, and knowing Sony they would have FromSoftware make a launch title for the PS6.

It’s going to be many many years before we see a PS6 emulator. We’re only just starting to get Bloodborne (PS4) working on PC now

Is it how there still isn’t a good enough PS4 emulator on PC to play Bloodborne at 60 fps?
