00As we get closer to the release date of the two next-gen consoles, the competition is also getting fiercer. Xbox in particular is moving strongly. With power moves like the purchase of Zenimax / Bethesda but also by regularly handing out well-liked snorts to their opponent on social media. And that is part of it, we think. A Console War, and yes there is, that requires cleverness. This includes exploiting the competitor’s mistakes. The question is of course whether all of this will yield anything. Is the Xbox campaign catching on? And are they catching up on the backlog they had at the start of Console War? JJ has new figures and will go through them with you.
Xbox is getting smart and ‘dist’ teardown video PS5
A good example of a clever response is the comments on Xbox social on the disassembly video of the PS5, which went online on Wednesday. In itself the level was nice, it gave a lot of new insights and it was viewed well. Only there were some ‘downsides’ that were pure bucks for Xbox on social media. We show them in this GK Journal. And we already give you a piece of paper, you immediately think ‘why did they design it that way’?
Genshin Impact is a huge hit that we are overlooking here
There is also the first hard news about the consequences of the purchase of Bethesda, we look at a huge hit in Asia that is not really picked up here and we can enjoy a nice comparison between a PS4 game and the for the PS5. optimized version. And damn damn, that looks scary nice. We have incorporated all this news in a nice compact way and with images and accompanying commentary in the edition of GK Journaal on Thursday 8 October.
