Since the trailer we used to capture the new screenshots has a very high bitrate of 10kb/s, it's almost lossless, and the PS4 screenshots was a slightly lossy JPG. The PS4 version of the shot wasn't showcased in the trailer, but an almost identical picture was provided by Kojima Productions a couple days ago. It includes special processing based on atmospheric simulation.įor the picture below we had to use a little trick. In addition, in the PS4 version only the daytime sky is not a static picture.

The sequences were simply filmed in a moment in which the sky was clear. Update: Hideo Kojima himself just clarified the reason on Twitter (we translated the Japanese version of the tweet that included more details): The PS4 version is the only one with dynamic sky conditions, and that's why it has no clouds in the trailer and in the previous pictures. We still don't know if it's just because the game has variable weather and the screenshots were taken in different conditions, or they were excluded to reach native 1080p

It's very interesting to see here that the PS4 version doesn't seem to have clouds in any of the sequences.
