I och med utannonseringen av Playstation 4 Pro fick vi veta att det inte bara är kommande spel som får bättre grafik, utan även ett urval äldre. Ett av de sistnämnda är föga överraskande (men glädjande nog) Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, och till VG247 säger Naughty Dog-programmeraren Christian Gyrling att vi kan skruva upp förväntningarna, inte minst tack vare HDR:
"We've never been able to intentionally show the range of colors we have here. I mean, they wanted to but they couldn't really do it. Now, we're really allowing especially our lighters but also all of the artists to create content that is pushing the boundaries over the restriction that was there before.
They're also knowing they can do that without having to restrict things down. We have color grading, we have all these various things like tone mapping to make sure we're still getting all the colors we want but within the existing HDTV color spec. Knowing we can do more, like why should we only use the dull colour of green when we can use the really, really bright one? We're not really doing that, but now we can realise the full potential of the image.
We're really excited to start with that process from the ground up; the artistic choice can be in the hands of the artist even more. HDR games from now on, moving forward - I think almost every single game will start supporting HDR. This is the future. We see little to no reason to not support this. It's almost no cost, close to zero cost, to expose the HDR... but it's an enormous benefit."
Värt att betona är dock att du måste ha en HDR-kompatibel TV tillsammans med din Playstation 4 Pro för att kunna uppleva detta (gäller även de Xbox One-spel som stödjer tekniken).
