Damn. I replayed it recently on SX with fps boost, and to achieve that they had to downgrade the resolution. Game played great but looked like ass. Wish I had've waited.

[blackblades]

So you saying fps boost lowers the resolution to achieve 60fps? Cause that culteastwitch was praising in a fanboy cok suking way.

[Darkwatchman]

It depends on the game. Some keep Xbox One X resolution. Others drop to base Xbox One resolution and settings.

Nice
Waiting to play this on Extra but have had too much else to play.
So is this a native PS5 version or does the PS4 version run at 60fps on PS5?

[Jin_Sakai]

As expected, Far Cry 5 will now run at 60 frames-per-second on PS5,

“as part of a patch that optimises the PS4 game on Sony's new-gen console.”

[Knushwood Butt]

Thanks.

Downloading now. I might do a bit of pancake gaming this weekend.

Not native PS5. But still looked pretty good on PS4 Pro, and at a solid 60fps, definitely a good experience. Sadly games can't break out of PS4 Pro resolutions, for some reason.

[LucasRuinedChildhood]

PS4 games can run 2-2.5 times better on PS5. They're basically just changing the framerate cap to take advantage of that. They could actually change the resolution but it might affect the framerate - it's not a native PS5 game so it can't properly take advantage of the hardware. 1620p isn't bad, tbh.

Was really hoping to read that New Dawn would be upgraded as well. :( Already beat Far Cry 5 + and only like 1 hr into New Dawn.

Pretty nice 👍
Now we’ll only need fps boost for:
Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
The Last Guardian
Assassin‘s Creed Unity
Shadow of the Colossus
Gravity Rush 2

Did I forget something?

[Welshy]

The worst part about AC Unity is that it *does* run natively at 60fps, but only when running the 1.0 version from the disc. If you allow the game to update, future patches applied a 30fps cap for some reason.

I don't see any reason it would be difficult to just lift the cap that they added.

[CML2]

Shadow of the Colossus already runs at 60fps.
Its possible to play The Last Guardian at 60fps with an unpatched disc version too.

[Stanjara]

So why not unlock framerate cap on the latest version? Can't be that hard.

[CML2]

Probably because the studio doesnt exist anymore. 🥲

RED DEAD 2

[LucasRuinedChildhood]

Absolutely. RDR2 still sells very well so the lack of a next gen version after GTA5 next gen is really annoying.

[autoglope]

What a nice surprise !!

It took me over a year to beat 6. I still have this on my back log of games. Now is a good time to start. Right after I play GTA5 for the first time since I bought it on PS3, and The Witcher.
