Skyrim Anniversary Edition: PS5 vs Xbox Series X/S Upgrades Tested

Digital Foundry : Skyrim is back once again with a new 'Anniversary Edition' that not only adds new content but also gives a bit of bespoke attention to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles - replacing the need to use user mods or FPS Boost to get the game running at 60fps. Given we were already looking at 4K on PS5 and Series X, what's changed? And is Series S still running at 1080p? Actually, no!

At 5 minutes.. Man idk why PS4-pro BC looked better, will probably blame it on the angles/distance/timing with editing. I personally thought PS5 update was a good upgrade, can't imagine it getting better, kind of a cash grab.

Digital Foundry, is probably crapping their pants right now. Knowing that the PS5 version is holding a steady frame rate with a native 4k image.

what it clearly shows is that old, UNsupported code is superior on Xbox consoles. However, when the software is supported, PS5 punches high above its weight while the Xbox is constrained. Better load times, resolution, and less frame drops on a game from a MS studio is hilarious. I wonder what the file sizes are; probably not much, like the lack of dualsense support, they didn't fully utilize Sony's SKU either.

Xbox looks like it is having trouble running their own games...

I'm Replaying Skyrim (again), and So Should You

Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.

I tried, but it's a poorly made game that insults its customers.

lucian229386d ago

nah, only mods make it decent, and even then it's bad, and this is after i modded for at least 3 years

Nittdarko386d ago

Funnily enough, I'm about to play it for the first time in VR with 1000 mods to make the game playable, as is the Bethesda way

This is sad.To think ES6 is a light year away.

At least Bethesda is honest that it will take a while to finish.

I resent Valve's behavior of making HL 2 Ep. 2 and then leaving that cliff hangover be for years, without letting us fans know that game's development is in distress. Years of basically nothing but radio silence... only to find out no proper sequel is even in the works! 😡

Just got into the meat of the game! Level 10, mobbing up on the Mage's Guild. I just discovered the levitating orb in the ancient ruins, nobody knows what it is, so I'm looking for a book that might explain things, but somebody jacked the book 😮

I'm a detective now.
