Elden Ring Nightreign's quality mode is “ineffective” on any console, tech experts say

Elden Ring Nightreg From gameplay to legend and history, its predecessor, Elden Ring, shared a lot. It also seems to bring some technical nuances, according to a new breakdown of technologists at Digital Foundry.

Digital casting An analysis of the technical details behind Frofsoftware's latest product was published, and while Nightreign mixed a lot of Elden Ring's content into something new, the state of what sounds like Nightreign's technology is quite reminiscent of Elden Ring's.

“This is really nothing new to those familiar with FrofSoftware's Elden Ring Engine and its running on consoles,” wrote Thomas Morgan of Digital Foundry.

Digital Foundry describes the optimization of PlayStation 5 and Xbox series consoles as “disappointing” as Nightreign continues “normally without targeting 60 frames per second when exploring.” Additionally, the tech analyst noted that there was no listed support for the PlayStation 5 Pro listed in the test, meaning that the PS5 Pro is simply running the basic PS5 code on base PS5 code without other modes or optimizations.

I suggest visiting Digital casting There are a lot to do for all digital crashes, but Morgan is best summarizing all of this here: “Ultimately, using Quality Mode doesn't make any sense on any console.” In this mode, the base PS5 is usually hovering in the lower 30-45 frames at a lower 30-45 frame rate, while the 40-60 range in frame mode hovers, while the Xbox console mirrors a similar gap.

While the PS5 Pro seems to benefit from wearing the extra horsepower on stage, there is still a “tilt” when exploring the world that attracts digital foundries. This article concludes that when it comes to Elden Ring's stage, there is a lot of necessary things when it comes to technology, because 60 frames per second on the console are “often out of reach”.
