That was pretty funny

Fun indeed.

Nice ad. Cod is a good fit for the retro vibe even though the graphics aren't amazing.

Should do an ad with Horizon too.

That was a work-in-progress, and I said at the time I'd post final specs as soon as we know them, which we now do.

We are definitely supporting HDR, on both the PS4 Pro and the base model PS4. If the game detects an HDR TV, it will start in HDR mode. HDR works in all resolutions mentioned below.

If you have a PS4 Pro, and are outputting to a 1080p TV, The Witness will render at 1080p, 60fps, 4x MSAA (which is substantially higher than the base PS4's 900p, 60fps, 2x MSAA). This is the same as we announced in the earlier posting.

If you have a PS4 Pro, and are outputting to a 4k TV, then you get a choice of two modes from the options menu:
(a) 1440p 3D scene, upscaled to 4k, text and UI rendered at 4k, 60fps
(b) 4k rendering for everything, 30fps

We added option (b) because a lot of people seem to want it, and it does look really good!

I don't yet know the exact release date for the patch, but it is coming pretty soon, in November sometime. We are now in the process of nailing down all the little details and making sure they are good. As soon as we know the release date I will announce it here.

PS4 Pro patch update – The Witness

All options are for Pro only (OG PS4 runs it at 1080@30fps in movie mode and ~900p@60fps in action mode).

See Legend? You can have a lower framerate mode if you have a mode that actually match the OG PS4 because that you won't have forced gameplay disadvantage... that is what Sony is avoiding... forced gameplay disadvantage and not optional one.

Hype goes heavens.
