Microsoft marknadsför Xbox Series X som den mest kraftfulla konsolen, något som de sett till ren beräkningskapacitet har täckning för. Men som vi tidigare rapporterat finns det flera exempel såsom Dirt 5, Devil May Cry 5 och Assassin's Creed Valhalla där Playstation 5 presterar bättre. När det kommer till Cyberpunk 2077, verkar det dock vara Xbox Series X du ska satsa på om du vill spela till konsol.
Detta rapporteras av Digital Foundry som testat Cyberpunk 2077 till både Playstation 5 och Xbox Series X. Till sistnämnda finns ett kvalitetsalternativ för grafik som saknas till Sonys konsol. Tack vare denna ökas upplösningen "dramatically", men vi får även mer folk på gatorna, fler bilar i trafiken samt ambient occlusion. De skriver:
"Arguably the best console experience right now is Series X's quality mode, which caps output frame-rate to 30 frames per second but increases resolution dramatically - it's dynamic and floats around 1512p in the city, but can be reach beyond 1728p in simpler scenes.
Latency increases and obviously visual response is lower, but increasing the pixel count so dramatically is a boon for image quality. Cyberpunk 2077 uses temporal super-sampling heavily, meaning that information in the current frame is derived from past frames too.
The higher the resolution of the previous frames, the higher the compound gain in the current frame - the end result is a much more attractive, less grainy and blurry game. There are further enhancements too, such as ambient occlusion, which is not present in performance mode, nor is it present in the PS5 build."
Även Microsofts budgetalternativ Xbox Series S presterar bättre än Playstation 5, och Digital Foundry fortsätter:
"In effect, Series S works as a tweaked version of Series X's quality mode. Resolution is clearly much, much lower - it can run beneath 1080p. However, the resolution bounds also increases beyond PS5's best, reaching around 1296p. More to the point, it retains most - if not all - of the quality mode advantages, meaning that you get the higher vehicle count and crowd density, plus features like ambient occlusion."
Stänger du däremot av kvalitetsalternativet, blir det jämnare. Bland annat har Xbox Series S/X mer ojämn bilduppdatering, men den mer levande staden finns kvar:
"In like-for-like tests, it does drop lower while areas that do not have any slowdown at all on PS5 can have some minor issues on Series X. However, city density in terms of NPC and vehicle count sees Series X clearly running with higher settings - it's not a like-for-like comparison."
Om du har möjlighet att välja version, lyder Digital Foundrys summering såhär:
"If you're happy with 30 frames per second, the premium Xbox offers the best visual quality by quite some margin along with additional graphical effects and vehicle/NPC density."
