A new Mass Effect Legendary Edition PS5 vs Xbox Series X comparison video has surfaced, comparing the freshly-released remaster on the next-gen consoles.
Following the release of the highly-anticipated remastered collection last week, YouTube channel ‘ElAnalistaDeBits’ compared the title running on both Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X. The analysis compares the framerate and visuals of the game on the next-gen consoles, and while both versions are nearly identical graphics-wise, they do appear to be some minor differences in the game’s performance mode. In addition, loading times appear to be faster on the Xbox Series X, which is likely due to Microsoft’s better implementation of backward comparability compared to the feature on Sony’s console.
Both versions of the game run at 60FPS in native 4K resolution in ‘quality mode’. In performance mode, the resolution is lowered to 1440p on both Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, although this mode offers framerates up to 120FPS on Microsoft’s console, whereas the framerate is limited to 60FPS on Sony’s console. It should be noted that in performance on Xbox Series X, there do appear some minor FPS drops.
According to the comparison, the PlayStation version of the game suffers from a few graphical bugs, which can be seen at the 1:55 minute mark of the video below.
As for the remaster’s visual features on both consoles – these are identical.
