A patent filed by Sony, “remastering by emulation,” alludes to a new-fangled method for presenting updated textures in older titles so they can look their best on higher-definition displays. Some believe it’s an indication backward compatibility is returning to the brand, courtesy of the PlayStation 5.
The language used in the patent definitely reads as if it is alluding to backward compatibility for the PS5. Plus, it’s worth noting that this filing is similar to another patent that Sony filed several months ago, wherein it described a “backward compatibility testing of software in a mode that disrupts timing”, so the evidence appears to be mounting that the tech firm could be taking steps toward including the highly desired feature in its next console.
