- pjmlp 7y agoMicrosoft, Apple, Nintendo and Sony. Contrary to urban myths Khronos APIs have little uptake on consoles, if they are supported at all.
- jfkebwjsbx 7y agoIsn't Vulkan supported on Series X or PS5? That wouldn't surprise me, given every vendor wants to rule with their API.
- pjmlp 7y agoSeries X is DirectX 12 Ultimate, and the PS5 will most likely have another generation of LibGNM/LibGNMX. Even on Switch there is the option of going with NVN or middleware like Unity and Unreal. According to Unity official numbers, they have about 50% of share across Switch titles.
- jfkebwjsbx 7y agoThanks a lot for the answer! So no Vulkan at all for Series X? Not even planned? That is sad but expected :(
