Well well well

New PS4 games must also run on PlayStation 5 from July, Sony tells devs

Full story in link

Sony has told PlayStation 4 game developers that any new titles submitted for certification must also be compatible with PlayStation 5, beginning 13th July.

This means all PS4 games received by Sony for testing after the middle of that month are technically forwards compatible - playable on Sony's next-gen console - though it is up to each game's developer to ensure this is the case.

This doesn't mean what you think it means. I can see the concern from a mile away. Same thing with PS4 Pro.

Basically any games past July 13th that goes into certification needs to support PS5's hardware and not just BC mode.
