The information was confirmed in an interview with Ryan for the Japanese magazine Famitsu, Ryan says that the development team of the console did not have enough time to implement full compatibility with the old consoles of the company.
“We have the specialized engineering used on the PS5 in mind as we produce the device. In between that, the PS4 already has 100 million players; We think they should want to play PS4 titles on PS5 as well, so we’ve included PS4 support. By implementing this, we also focused our efforts on incorporating the high-speed SSD and the new DualSense controller at the same time. So, unfortunately, we were unable to implement such compatibility. ”Ryan said.
