\n

Last week saw the release of two new games that do not support 60 frames per second gaming on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series consoles, Gotham Knights and A Plague Tale: Requiem. Many would argue that one of the greatest wins from the new wave of consoles has been that the majority of titles support 60fps – or even 120fps – representing a game-changing improvement over the last-gen standard 30fps. The question is why this brace of titles do not support this option and whether it signifies the beginning of the end of 60fps as a standard for console gaming. <\/p>\n

It’s a tricky question to answer, but ultimately, I feel it is inevitable that the proliferation of 60fps support will slack off significantly – not least because so many titles are looking to tap into the full array of features offered by Epic’s Unreal Engine 5, which sets the stage for a new 3D rendering paradigm. We’ve already had our first taste of the kind of fidelity UE5 offers thanks to last year’s phenomenal demo – The Matrix Awakens – based on an early rendition of the engine’s features. Lumen, tapping into hardware-accelerated ray tracing features, delivers an astonishingly realistic lighting solution, while Nanite offers a level of geometric detail in excess of traditional rendering.<\/p>\n

It’s quite unlike anything we’ve seen before, but the point is that the demo runs at an inconsistent 30fps during gameplay, while cutscenes are actually operating at a literally cinematic 24fps. Both CPU and GPU are put through the wringer here, so simply scaling down resolution to improve frame-rate will not help much.<\/p>\n
