From VG Tech:

The versions tested were 1.002.000 on PS5 and 1.2.0.49100 on the Xbox Series consoles. Game codes provided by Ubisoft.

Timestamps:
00:00 - PS5
06:15 - Xbox Series X
12:29 - Xbox Series S

PS5 uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 2880x1620 and the lowest resolution found being approximately 2560x1440. Native resolution pixel counts at 2880x1620 seem to be common on PS5. PS5 seems to use a form of temporal upsampling that can reconstruct a 3840x2160 resolution.

Xbox Series X uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 2880x1620 and the lowest resolution found being approximately 2560x1440. Native resolution pixel counts at 2880x1620 seem to be common on Xbox Series X. Xbox Series X seems to use a form of temporal upsampling that can reconstruct a 3840x2160 resolution.

Xbox Series S uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 1600x900 and the lowest resolution found being approximately 1280x720. Native resolution pixel counts at 1600x900 seem to be common on Xbox Series S. Xbox Series S seems to use a form of temporal upsampling that can reconstruct a 1920x1080 resolution.

Note that performance can vary noticeably in mass events.

0.3 frames …..

everybody is a winner it seems.

 

[Md Ray]

 

[skit_data]

-Same res (at least DRS range)
-Tearing on both, slightly better on Series X
-Slightly better framerate on Series X
-FPS seems pretty variable when a lot of shit is on screen

 

[Riky]

Tearing is just the worst, thank god for VRR.

 

[Lysandros]

This is pretty much identical with a microscopic edge for XSX. 1 FPS difference in minimums and slightly more tearing on PS5. To be added to the list of the vast majority of games having resolution and essentially performance parity between the systems.

 

[dcmk7]

Xbox Series S uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 1600x900 and the lowest resolution found being approximately 1280x720

 

[sojuwarrior]

bottom out at 720p on Series S for a cross-gen game...yikes.

 

[RoadHazard]

The performance in the beta was pretty terrible IMO, very rarely a smooth 60fps. So it's better now but still very unstable?

 

[nbkicker]

Ubisoft king of screen tearing, have they brought a game out that doesnt have tearing

 

[akaFullmetal]

Pretty much toe to toe, very close outcome on both, enjoy the game.

 

[M1chl]

The fuck is this game? Damn I got sweaty just by looking at it. Sense of speed and inclusion of gyroscopic forces is probably best I've seen. Interesting that this is Ubisoft game...

You missed Steep then. It was awesome.

 

[M1chl]

Lowest game res on XSS so far?

 

[skit_data]

Lowest game res on XSS so far?

I think The Medium still holds that spot, 540p if I don’t misremember

Edit: Looking at the DF written article it seems to be at 648p at the lowest

 

[M1chl]

Hmm that was low even on XSX, noticeable when I played it.

 

[Die Namek Ability]

Clearly more optimization was spent on the XSX, i cant wait to see what the PS5 version would look like with the extra optimization time.





This is a joke.

 

[Topher]

Tearing is just the worst, thank god for VRR.

But for those that don't have VRR there is vsync so I'm wondering why is there tearing either way....

 

[Kacho]

Hey assholes, I’m not buying a new TV so enough with the screen tearing.

 

[Kilau]

0.3 frames …..

Is that the number of frames that don't tear? Screw this crap.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Another poorly optimised game from Ubisoft I'll be avoiding.

 

[Werewolfgrandma]

I know it's a joke but time doesn't equal optimization. Results do. Time is irrelevant.

 

[Bonfires Down]

720p in a cross-gen game?

 

[AnotherOne]

1 higher fps on xsx.

 

[Topher]

I know it's a joke but time doesn't equal optimization. Results do. Time is irrelevant.

 

[Werewolfgrandma]

What part is giving you confusion?

 

[Topher]

What part is giving you confusion?

All of it. "optimization time" refers to taking the time to optimize. It doesn't equate optimization to time.

 

[Physiognomonics]

Overall it's very slighty better on XSX but by less than 1% in both average fps and screen-tearing metric and a bit better by percentile frame-time.

But what with those 33ms-66ms frame-time drops on Xbox series? Those will be noticeable even with VRR TV.

 

[Werewolfgrandma]

All of it. "optimization time" refers to taking the time to optimize. It doesn't equate optimization to time.

Time is irrelevant to optimization to the user. We know nothing of time. We only know results

[Md Ray]

But for those that don't have VRR there is vsync so I'm wondering why is there tearing either way....

It's basically using adaptive vsync. Whenever it dips under 60, vsync gets disabled to minimize input lag at the cost of screen tear.

[Dust-by-Monday]

It's basically using adaptive vsync. Whenever it dips under 60, vsync gets disabled to minimize input lag at the cost of screen tear.

That’s weird because dipping under 60fps used to be how I lowered vsync lag on pc and I even kept vsync on!! No torn frames, no input lag.

 

[Insane Metal]

Dam, even the SS has better fps than the PS5. It's feeling the pressure for sure.

 

[Fess]

everybody is a winner it seems.

With nearly 2000 torn frames in those stats?
VRR TV owners are the only winners here.

And you get to use component cables and a CRT too

 

[cragarmi]

Everybody wins! (Apart from XSS)

[intbal]

This game is available on 8th gen, right?
I didn't see any performance analysis for those machines. Anybody know how well it runs?


Edit: Found one - Riders Republic, all consoles

It's not a frame-counted advanced analysis, but it's good enough to show that the 8th gen all run at a stable 30.

 

[Arioco]

What the hell happened to the Series S version? 900p and drops to 720p? What a joke! We are back to XBOX 360 resolutions, for fuck's sake. Welcome to 2005 guys! And the game does not seem to be a technical marvel, to be honest.

I wish MS would have done with a 6 Tflops machine with higher bandwidth. Or even better, an XBOX Series X digital edition for 400 bucks like Sony with PS5, that would've been so nice. I know it's 100 bucks more than Series S, but I think the difference between those pieces of hardware is more than worth it, right?

 

[Vognerful]

Guys, just wanted to say that as per most reviews the game looks like a lot of fun.

Blame ubisoft. Not Microsoft.... or the console itself.

On PC its actually one of the hardest Ubisoft ga,mes to run well, harder than Valhalla and Odyssey.. My 980ti was dropping into the 40's constantly at 1080p.

 

[RoboFu]

Despite not owning or wanting this game I am glad all my TVs now have vrr.

 

[ethomaz]

Tearing tearing everywhere.

 

[elliot5]

It's not like the game is a looker even at "4K" on PS5/XSX. XSS looks blurrier due to the lower resolution but still basically looks "the same" to me.

 

[Arioco]

Is this game launching for last gen consoles? Because if that's the case the results might be pretty horrible.

 

[Stuart360]

Pretty sure its cross gen yeah. I mean it was the beta i played and the final game may be better optimized but yeah the beta was way harder to run than all other recent Ubisoft games.

 

[onQ123]

I have a feeling that these cross gen games with low resolution on the next gen consoles are memory bound.
