‘War Thunder on PS4 looks as good as a PC on its highest setting’, says Gaijin

In an exclusive interview with PSU, War Thunder developer Pavel Kulikov talks about working with the PlayStation 4 in preparation for its ambitious cross-platform MMO which will be available at launch in November.

When asked if the graphics of the PS4 version were scaled down from the PC version he said that not only does Sony’s next-gen version look just as good as the PC title, but graphical updates will ensure it will look even better throughout the life-cycle of the MMO.

"Right now the console version of War Thunder looks as good as PC one on highest settings. PS4 is a very powerful machine and our developers will be getting only better with is in the coming years. Being an MMO allows you to always keep your game up to date in terms of graphics, so we’re going to take full advantage of that," said Kulikov.
