This generation has suffered from massive generational stasis with the jump from PS4 to PS5 being hampered by stock shortages and highly compatible technological architecture. Obviously, this is a true shame for last-gen players who already had hopes of slinging spells around like a silly Muggle, however it looks like a promising sign for AAA video game development moving forward.
