The underlying visual settings seem quite similar and the image resolve in still shots doesn't differ that much from the performance mode, though resolution seems to operate in something close to an 1832p-2160p window. The visual quality mode at first glance seems very similar to its performance equivalent. Heavy combat in dense environments plays back perfectly fine, without any issues.

The upside here is that the performance mode on Series X is a locked 60fps as far as I can tell. Image quality overall isn't too bad and this mode generally holds up pretty well on a 4K set, despite the relatively unambitious rendering targets.
#Deathloop pc or ps5 1080p#
We seem to be getting a dynamic resolution here that tends to operate between 1080p and 1440p with what looks like upscaling via AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution (the spatial 1.0 variant, not the far superior 2.x 'sequel'). Just like on PS5, this option compromises on resolution in order to target a 60fps update. There's a lot of ground to cover here, so to keep things simple we'll be going console-by-console starting with Series X's 60Hz modes, followed by the Series S and its two modes and concluding with the 120Hz modes available on PS5 and Series X.įirst up is the performance mode. It's the Digital Foundry tech review, in video form for your viewing pleasure.īut let's move on to the console comparisons. Watch on YouTube Deathloop on Xbox Series consoles, stacked up against PlayStation 5. So Deathloop is still keeping pace with general trends in high-budget games, outside of a handful of graphically ambitious outliers.
#Deathloop pc or ps5 software#
Most software is still mired in the cross-gen era, with little visual distinction between current-gen and last-gen versions. Plus, in the year since Deathloop's original release, we've seen vanishingly few visually advanced efforts on console. Deathloop isn't aiming for a hyper-detailed aesthetic, with stylised characters, lower-density textures and simple particle effects - and it does at least succeed in conveying its retro 60s look. Asset quality is reasonably high at least, and shadowmap and volumetric lighting quality is solid across all consoles. To be clear, it's not unattractive by any means but the visual techniques at hand are generally in line with eighth-gen fare. Technically speaking, this largely resembles a last-generation title. Still, this isn't a rollercoaster ride, and conquering the 'Deathloop' requires a lot of backtracking and patient exploration. It's not quite as strict as a game like Returnal, and it's structured as a more conventional single-player adventure. Making progress hinges on exploiting the game's central conceit - a time loop that makes the game restart at the end of each day. It offers open-ended gameplay but not in an open-world environment - it's a tightly curated experience that still manages to excite and surprise. Like many prior Arkane titles, it's superficially a first-person action game, but success depends on exploiting unique character abilities, stealth, and environmental hazards. But with a fresh start on new consoles, has Arkane finally delivered a properly calibrated version of their first-person adventure? Is this the definitive Deathloop experience?ĭeathloop is a curious game. That original PS5 release had some flaws but has been patched since release with additional content, visual fixes, and a new 120fps graphics mode. The time-travelling caper from Microsoft-owned Arkane Studios debuted as a PS5 and PC release last September - a time-limited console exclusive owing to a pre-acquisition agreement with Sony. There is no story progress feeling: like a hamster, you run around and around in same parts of island, gathering loot and chasing targets like a dog.Deathloop has finally appeared on Xbox Series consoles. You'll get fast annoyed on third loop reset by same game locations. The design and music are great, the story idea too, but. It irritates the most, as well as due to the plot-driven loot reset.
The cost of mistake is high: you can die 2 times and next you'll get - a reset of your loot and progress. Aggressive play style is not acceptable: It's not fun at all, especially when your weapon jams and you're surrounded. I don't know what they did to shooting but it feels worse than in Dishonored 2. After great Prey (2017) and awesome Dishonored dilogy Deathloop feels repetative, irritating due to loop concept, annoying due to using same locations every time and boring due to broken shooting mechanic. After great Prey (2017) and awesome Played around 5-6 hours, killed few Visionaries, and I can tell: It's the worst Arkane game up to date.
