 Hey there guys and ladies and welcome to another episode of PS viewer news on today's episode We have got yes, even more follow-up with the whole Sony PlayStation 5 PS viewer What is going on there kind of a thing? We've got some news about PlayStation Sony London studio And we've got a little bit of no man sky news as well and a little sprinkle of alvo on top of that as well Before we get started on that though, maybe you could just hit that old like button or the subscribe button You know either one of those be grand. Let's just jump right into us. Shall we so first things first? Let's talk about the PlayStation Sony PlayStation 5 PS viewer and now Ubisoft have entered the mix in this whole confusing Situation it's really kind of getting out of hand at this stage a month ago two months ago Sony put out a list of backwards Compassable games or rather I should say Sony put out a list of games that were not backward Compassable, I think there was 10 games in the list out of those 10 games I think Robinson the journey was the only Virtual reality game that wasn't supported and I think most of us were like, okay, that's cool You know not too bad We can sacrifice Robinson if everything else is going to work And we were kind of just operating on the impression that every other game would work So then last or like a few days ago last week I think was Friday Ubisoft put out their own little statement saying hey By the way, these are our games that won't run on the PS5 and they included like a bunch of those Assassin's Creed Chronicle games, which aren't a big deal whatever the kind of like the mobile version of Assassin's Creed They're not the proper mainline entry games although there was Assassin's Creed syndicates included on that list Which is a pretty high-profile game not to be included plus Importantly to this channel PlayStation virtual reality being what this channel focuses on where was with in and Star Trek Ridge crew both of those were on that list as games that would not be running on the PS5 So that kind of opened up the door to like a million more questions Is this the beginning? Are we gonna see EA create their own list next? You know Rockstar games all these other publishers studios Whatever isn't much more than what Sony kind of let on with that 10 game list and the answer is we don't know because not too long After that list went up Ubisoft came along said you know what some of this information might not have been correct And they took it down. So now we're kind of left in limbo We don't know where was within or Star Trek Ridge crew will run on a PS5 According to Sony's initial announcement. They should according to Ubisoft. They won't so what's going on? Is it the case that Ubisoft did their own test them and maybe they didn't have their dev kiss up to the latest firmware or whatever? And then Sony said hey update your firmware and you know werewolves and Star Trek and Assassin's Creed Syndicate Whatever they'll all run if you do that. So then you suffer like okay We'll take it down or is it a case of Sony being like hey, we're not ready for people to know its information yet This is embargoed. We want to hide this bad news or whatever So that's definitely very concerning and this article here on upload viewer by Jamie Fulton kind of just goes over the whole thing Oh, I left out space junkies Space junkies was also on that list that Ubisoft put out of games that wouldn't be included Although according to Jamie Fulton here that game is pretty much dead anyway. No more updates Not much of a player base, but yeah Anyway, the crazy thing about that whole thing is that Ubisoft went and took that down So now we don't know we don't know what's going on there Sony once again keeping us in the dark when it comes to PlayStation viewer, which is kind of Upsettin I don't know do I want to say it's upset and it's annoying really especially if you're covering viewer on YouTube Kind of a pain in the air not knowing what's going on But haven't said that's the third of November right now. We're gonna find out soon enough nine days Yeah, I think we're nine days out from PlayStation 5 releasing in North America and well most of the world So we'll have our answers then as long as people get them camera adapters in time So the next thing I want to talk about then also comes from upload viewer Also from Jamie Fulton and this is all about no man's sky. It's not a huge Updates it's probably not gonna make a difference to most of the watching But just in case for whatever reason if you don't already own no man's sky But you're planning on getting us for ps5 You can buy the ps5 version of that and it will support viewer will have that backwards Compassable ps4 version so essentially there you're getting the ps4 version as well if you buy the ps5 version for no man's sky So you won't have to worry about which version you'll guess if you want to have viewer you can get the ps4 version Which is already out now and you can get the ps5 version And of course if you already own the ps4 version you're going to get the free upgrade to ps5, so it's all very You know it doesn't really matter which one you get you'll be fine So don't worry about that. That's just a small little uptaste very consumer friendly stuff from Hello Games Who are once again climbing that mountain of redemption? I think they're at the top of this stage They're gone up beyond that now. They're at a stage now or we can just admire them at the stage I think next up let's talk about this job list in here for Sony London And if you don't know already Sony London studio a responsible for the PlayStation viewer worlds game that included you know the London heist the shark tank and they laser release their own proper full AAA type game called blood and truth, which was really good and Enjoyed us here on the channel. I think most people enjoy that game It'd be in a top 10 list for most people I would say so they're hiring and interestingly they're hiring for a lead Online programmer which kind of hints that their next game is going to have online Capabilities of some kind not necessarily multiplayer with some kind of online functionality and seeing as Sony London Or at least have been in the past five years or so Tasked with producing games creating games just for virtual reality We might make the logical jump that these guys are working on a psv or two game for the ps5 and That is going to have some kind of online functionality maybe multiplayer, you know, so it's pretty exciting I read the job listing here But it doesn't really say anything at all about virtual reality not that I would need to because you know It's an online programmer. So whoever's programming the online functionality for virtual reality games doesn't necessarily need Experience with virtual reality whatsoever. They're just doing this back end stuff Which would be the same as you know flat games really, but the big news I guess is that they're looking for a lead online programmer They're looking for someone who knows a little bit about networked physics and animation systems game logic Matchmaking and session management among other that does sound like multiplayer if you ask me And then last but not least Alvo beta codes are finally officially at paying They're here. They're rolling them out now for North America. I should clarify if you're in Europe They're still waiting to get their hands on the codes for that But North American people have applied for basic codes keep an eye on your emails or whatever methods They're using to send them out to people I assume it's emails and this just went live a couple of hours ago So don't panic if you don't have it right now. They're still sort of knows Rolling that out but today if you're lucky enough to get accepted into that base I then you're gonna be playing Alvo finally after what feels like I don't know an eternity of waiting So that's pretty exciting. And so that is it for this episode of PS viewer news Let me know what you think about, you know, I'll like those some good news here today Alvo news good news. I think it's good news to hear about Sony London hiring for online That's pretty exciting. It's great to hear that no man's sky has been consumer friendly letting you have the viewer Compatibility even if you just buy the PS5 version boss. This whole Sony being so kind of very cloak and daggery When it comes to PS viewer, I mean, that's kind of what's dominating things right now for me It's kind of hard to think about all this other stuff when all this is up in the air And we don't really know what's going on It is looking like we're not gonna get virtual reality games that are tapping into the PS5 That's kind of confirmed at this stage But then like we see other strange things that maybe go against that So for example, the PS5 version of Hitman is Advertising PS viewer support in its features when we've been told we can only expect that via Backwards compatibility. So what's that about? That's a bit strange. So there is a little bit of mixed messaging going on I just want Sony to come out and put us black and whites make it clear as day All these games these Hitman's, you know Resident Evil 8 games like that. I want them to come out and say hey, yes, this has virtual reality on PS5 No, it does not have virtual reality on PS5. Just say it one way or the other Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments below We can have a little tasty chat about it maybe and with that I will end this video But before I do let me thank my patreon supporters whose names are on the screen as we speak thanks to their generosity They're keeping this channel taken over.
