Xbox One VS PS4: Specs, Tech, Price - Bloober Team Claims ‘PlayStation 4 is more powerful’ Than Xbox One if Going By the Numbers

'If you look at pure numbers it seems that PlayStation 4 is more powerful,' says Bloober Team

We may be that much closer to the release of next generation consoles like PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that all the power struggles comparing the consoles will stop any time soon. Keeping up the trend, developer Bloober Team has stated that if numbers are considered, the PS4 is ahead of the Xbox One in the race.

Although, since time immemorial, a number of reports have claimed that the PlayStation 4 is more powerful than the Xbox One and that the Sony-based console is preferred over its Microsoft counterpart, we are still waiting for the final release of both consoles to determine the truth.

However, listening to Aron Cender, the Marketing Manager at Bloober Team, in a recent interview conducted by Gamingbolt, it seems the team has already made up its own mind. Now, more than likely, you're thinking, "Who the hell is the Bloober team?" Fair enough. The company isn't nearly as well known as say Ubisoft or Rockstar. The company is mostly known for a few puzzle games on handheld systems, like Double Bloob and Paper Wars: Cannon Fodder.

“We didn’t have any contact with Xbox One, so it’s hard to compare both consoles," said Cerney. "However, if you look at pure numbers it seems that PlayStation 4 is more powerful.”

“Most games run better on PS4, with higher resolutions and FPS, so I’m pretty sure Sony did a better job at making a gaming console. Pure computing power is for sure an important factor for developers, but we should also remember how easy it is to access this power.”

He added that as far as an overall score for PlayStation 4 is concerned, it “is a great and powerful tool. Our games are not that demanding on hardware as AAA titles, but we can see how well-engineered the PS4 is.”

Additionally, asked about his take on working on hardware as a whole and what aspect of it stands out to him, Cender added: “PlayStation 4 is a very powerful machine. Even though Basement Crawl is an indie title, nowhere near to AAA scale, we still have a lot of respect for Sony – they created an amazing piece of technology.”

“During the production of Basement Crawl PlayStation 4 was still being developed, so we had to adapt all the time and change a lot of things. But without any doubt it’s a very powerful tool for developers,” he added.

Bloober Team is a Polish developer currently working on its newest title Basement Crawl which has been categorized as a maze-based action game with several strategic elements in its core.

The game is currently targeting a PlayStation 4 launch window release.
