The PS5’s SSD should (hopefully) reduce those load times enough to ensure that Fallout 4‘s world feels a little more cohesive and that its end game activities aren’t quite as cumbersome.

As the game wore on and both those actions became much more common, you started to have to sit through more and more loading screens just to accomplish simple tasks. The problem was that Fallout 4‘s load times were reserved for when you entered certain areas and fast traveled. In fact, you almost never encountered loading while you were just walking around the game’s massive world. Honestly, Fallout 4‘s load times were significantly better than the ones that plagued Fallout 3, New Vegas, and even Skyrim. With that in mind, let’s take a look at 6 PlayStation 4 games that’s long load times will (hopefully) be fixed by the PS5 SSD.

That absolutely means that next-gen games will load faster than ever before, but it also means that backward compatible PS4 games will no longer need to suffer from the sometimes awful load times that plagued the HDD era. In the short term, though, the biggest benefit of an SSD that most gamers will notice is the reduced load times it offers. Its ability to process information faster than ever before could eventually change the way that developers approach the art of game design. The PS5’s SSD is so much more than a quality of life feature.
