Assassin's Creed Origins gets PS4 Pro/Xbox One X comparison

None hit the heights of PC though.

One of the games that has received its Xbox One X patch already is Assassin's Creed Origins, and because of this it's become one of the games often used to compare what the PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X have to offer.

Today, Digital Foundry has posted their analysis and come up with a couple of interesting facts, the most important being that both versions look really good. There are some differences though, and this is what they had to say about the resolution:

"In general gameplay, we didn't get to see the Microsoft console deliver full-fat 2160p, but we did measure 3584x2016 at the upper bounds - a 62 per cent increase in maximum resolution up against the highest pixel count we saw on Pro: 2816x1584. In terms of the minimums, it's X at 1656p vs Pro at 1350p."

However, a really good PC will still be your best alternative, according to Digital Foundry:

"Beyond scalability in pixel counts, Xbox One X does throw up one or two enhancements. While draw distance and LODs seem to be the same as PlayStation 4 Pro, the extra pixel count has a benefit on texture filtering, which adds extra detail to artwork and brings the Microsoft hardware more into line with PC. Running the game on high-end PC hardware opens up maximum shadow resolution and pushes out the cascade further into the distance. For its part, Xbox One X sits at a kind of midway point between PC's best and the standard set by PS4 Pro."

They end the test by concluding that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are having a struggle with the stunning game, but that both successors deliver:

"The standard PS4 can feel over-taxed at times - a situation that is amplified on base Xbox One, where performance drops even harder and image quality is significantly blurrier. The mid-gen refresh machines from Sony and Microsoft sort out most of the in-game frame-rate dips, and both improve visuals - and in terms of the various console versions available, Xbox One X is the best of the bunch."
