However, there are nonetheless areas the place the PS5 title drops a couple of frames. Most notably, the bustling metropolis of Novigrad appears to be the body fee’s archenemy, stopping a rock stable 60fps virtually each time.
It’s an identical story with the sport’s 30fps ray tracing mode, which has seen some huge enhancements because the Complete Edition’s launch in December of final 12 months.
