Patents are usually a common way to discover news about the manufacturers of the moment, although they do not always end up becoming a reality. In this case, a new Sony patent seems to advance a new and curious function of PlayStation 5, the possibility of leaving in-game notes for other players .
This new social feature might well remind us of Dark Swouls, as it works in a very similar way. Leave text or even audio notes in different game spaces, both multiplayer and single player as a guide or clues (via Scrubwiki ).
It is also mentioned that the developers themselves can include this type of message as a guide in exchange for a "fee". In other words, "paid" tutorials and advice with the guarantee of being 100% accurate compared to what another player may have left.
Patents don't always come true, but in this case, would you like a Dark Souls-style messaging system on PS5? Even if it included a payment option? Imagine being able to share your best tricks and secrets in games like God of War Ragnarok .
