New Battlefield Game Being Tested With 120fps Support for PS5 Pro
[summaraize]
Those who own the PS5 Pro and plan to play the new Battlefield game are in for one buttery experience that’s usually only available for PC gamers. The beefier console essentially doubles the framerate of the game’s base PS5 console performance.
This is according to the Battlefield Labs client, which is currently being playtested privately on PS5.
New Battlefield Game on PS5 Pro Will Feature Insane Framerates for Consoles
The news comes from one playtester who reached out to MP1st about this confirmation. While we can’t share what we’ve been shown, given that the screenshot can be traced back to the leaker, the framerate overlay showed the game running at 100-110fps, with the lowest drop in the high 80’s, and only for a quick moment. Usually, it’s at 100fps in the center of the map, even with lots of destruction in effect.
If it’s just infantry combat, it sticks to a super-smooth 120fps. The monitor overlay is accurate enough, given that it’s lowering the refresh rate based on the game’s frames-per-second, which suggests VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) is enabled.
We were told that dips into 80fps range were “rare,” which is promising. In comparison, Battlefield 2042 topped out at 60fps. Of course, given this is Battlefield Labs, there is a chance DICE is experimenting with various technical configurations, and the final version of the game won’t even offer anything past 60fps even for the PS5 Pro. That said, based on the performance of the pre-alpha client, expect this framerate to stick to the final version.
The new Battlefield game is expected to be revealed sometime this summer, and we’re counting on EA to discuss it next month.
