Pentiment runs at 120FPS on PS5, but only 60FPS on Xbox

Here’s something strange: repentanceObsidian, a narrative-focused game that was previously exclusive to Xbox, currently runs better on PlayStation 5 than Xbox Series X/S. This is obviously a bug that will be fixed, but the whole situation has caused a firestorm in the never-ending console wars.

Rumors have been circulating in the Xbox community and online for much of February that Microsoft is planning to port big games to PS5 and Switch.This results in whole collapse finally–February 15–Podcast from Xbox confirms, yes, Some games are being ported to other platforms.But it also denies big headlines like this starry sky It will be available on PS5 and confirms that the company plans to launch more Xbox consoles in the future. February 21, During the Nintendo Direct, repentance was announced as one of the first Xbox launch games to hit Switch and PS5. It launched the next day. Oddly enough, at least on PS5, the game runs at a higher frame rate than on Microsoft’s console.

repentance It runs at 120FPS on PS5. Currently, on Xbox Series X/S, it runs at half the speed, 60FPS. Now, to be clear, this is not a game that needs to run at 200+ FPS or anything like that. This is a narrative-centered, text-heavy 2D game. Still, many warped Xbox diehards aren’t too keen on playing better games on PS5.

According to Obsidian Studio Design Director Josh Sawyer, the reason for this discrepancy is a mistake. February 26he tweeted: “XBOX will enable 120fps in the next patch. It’s just a bug that it’s disabled.”

But that doesn’t help much, as some Xbox fans are asking why the game (released in November 2022) never received this 120FPS support patch earlier. Somewhat strangely, Microsoft didn’t ensure that the Xbox port of the game would run at 120FPS before launching the PS5 version.

my city Xbox has been contacted regarding this matter.

While this is just a weird little quirk involving a bug in a nearly two-year-old game, it certainly doesn’t help alleviate people’s fears Most loyal Xbox customer Microsoft doesn’t pay enough attention to their beloved platform.
