One of the biggest launch games for the PlayStation 5 this week is Spider-Man: Miles Morales<\/a>. IGN was able to speak with the devs for an in-depth tech breakdown, but the devs at Insomniac says we\u2019re just \u201cscratching the surface\u201d of what the PS5 can do.Spider-Man: Miles Morales on PS5 offers a variety of options, whether it\u2019s the ray-tracing enabled fidelity mode, or the smoother frame rate performance mode. Insomniac\u2019s core technology director Mike Fitzgerald says that these options, wrapped around the faster load times of the custom SSD, are just the first steps for the PS5.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels like we\u2019re just scratching the surface of what you can do with hardware like [the PS5],\u201d says Fitzgerald. \u201cThat we sort of can take a game model like Spider-Man and make everything really fast. Even the Ratchet and Clank game we\u2019re working on is leaning into that, a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/output>Fitzgerald says that developers will have \u201cyears and years of scraping more and more performance\u201d out of the PS5 and doing things that are \u201ccrazier and crazier.\u201d For a full breakdown of the tech powering Spider-Man: Miles Morales, check out IGN\u2019s tech breakdown in the video above.<\/p>\n
