Update: A couple of minor errors cropped up in this Direct, so a new version is now available. We've also added the 4K encodes.

Original Post: A new State of Play 'quote-unquote' drops, giving Rich, Alex and Oliver much to discuss in this latest edition of DF Direct Weekly. Ghost of Yotei, Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster and the new Dragon Age dominate discussion, before the team move on to talk about the latest PS5 Pro title reveals. RTX 50-series specs come into focus - with leaks revealing a huge gap between 5080 and 5090. And there's much concern and bafflement around Monster Hunter Wilds' recommended PC specs.

Any chance of covering the PS5 version of Visions of Mana? Thanks as always, crew!

Peter

Thanks for answering my question gents! Apologies for the length..... 😁

There seems to be 2 versions of the HZD trailer. One says captured on PS5, another on Guerrilla's channel says captured on PC. Have you guys compared those? They seem very similar, PC maybe a bit sharper?

Thank you for the morning stroll commentary lads xx

Monster Hunter World was such a surprising win for Capcom. I really hope Wilds' spec sheet is a poorly written placeholder and the worst part of Wilds' experience going forward for PC players.

There's was a TGS demo of Monster Hunter Wilds showing it running at broadly 60FPS with hitches and occasional significant lurches below (asset streaming?), reported running on PS5. Although typical YouTube stream quality caveats apply... You can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/live/LzDMg_F15Lc?si=LGhVP9ZW4ZNJ9fm9&t=436 Curiously there is a "Keyboard Key Config" menu option on the main menu shown part way through... That PC spec sheet is definitely bemusing.
