The new interview comes from Digital Foundry, where CD Projekt Red said that it will be making sure it doesn’t make the same mistakes it did with Cyberpunk 2077 when it came to performance issues.
This time around, CD Projekt Red will be taking a console-first approach to ensure 60FPS stability. However, the studio acknowledges that the Xbox Series S will be extremely challening.
On the Xbox Series S and the 60FPS benchmark, it was said, “I will say that 60 FPS will definitely be extremely challenging on the Series S, let’s just say that this something that we need to to figure out”.
I’ll watch it myself later.
I just hope they provide graphics modes, because I can imagine the picture quality won’t be the best ever on current gen consoles, as in maybe a softer look that I’d personally like and then I would opt for a quality/resolution mode and be ok with 30fps or 40fps.
I’m calling it now this game is gonna be delayed on Xbox because of the series s just like wu Kong and Baulders gate. If they are talking about this now it’s forshadowing
Let’s hope not. Also, W4 is 2027 at the earliest is what CDPR said. We should be having the next gen by then. I’m not gonna worry about this that it could be a Wukong situation, plus we don’t even truly know what went on there.
Witcher also is super big, very important for Xbox as a whole, while Wukong was…well, nowhere near the popularity.
The dedicated PlayStation handheld will be announced by then, and concern over lesser hardware holding games back will have disappeared, like tears in rain.
Nobody is expecting this to run at 60FPS on Series S, if it does that would be one of those pleasant surprises, did DF not bother to ask how Xbox Series X is expected to perform? I would love to hear CDPR talk about Xbox Series X’s hardware and what they expect from it.
