the game will run at 4K 60fps on PS5, but …

Regarding the Xbox Series X, Ubisoft has always been clear on the subject: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will run in native 4K with a framerate of 60fps, fingers in the nose. On the other hand, as regards the PS5, we cannot say that the French publisher has shown the same assurance. Indeed, if he cracked an official press release last September to say that the game would display in 4K 60fps on PS5, he did not specify whether the resolution would be native or not. Same uncertainty on his blog where, last week, he listed the games that will exploit the capabilities of next-gen consoles. Again, the 4K 60fps is confirmed on the machine from Sony Interactive Entertainment, but without knowing more about the nature of the display.

Asked by our colleagues at DualShockers, Ubisoft ended up spitting the song: on PS5, the 4K of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will not be native but upscaled. While the visual difference between the two versions shouldn’t be abysmal, it’s the kind of ad that’s likely to fuel trolls on social media. Moreover, for the little anecdote, in the original version of his post, the company Yves Guillemot suggested that on PS5, future owners of the game would have to make a choice between 4K and 60fps. Ubisoft then hastened to retouch his text.

Anyway, we remind you that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be released on November 10 on Xbox Series S, Stadia, Xbox Series X, PS4, PC and Xbox One, and not before November 19 on PS5.
