We are less than a month away from the official release of Gun Interactive’s the Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and while we’ve gotten plenty of information around the PC version, many have wondered about its console’s counterpart. Well, we got that answer for you, as we can confirm that The Texas Chain Saw Massacre will feature different graphical modes on current-gen consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X)
Speaking to MP1st, Gun Interactive confirmed the following modes for current-gen consoles:
Texas Chain Saw Massacre Performance, Quality Modes:
- PS5 – Performance Mode (60FPS target, reduced resolution) Quality Mode (30FPS target, in favor for higher resolution)
- Xbox Series X – Performance Mode (60FPS target, reduced resolution) Quality Mode (30FPS target, in favor for higher resolution)
- Xbox Series S – Quality Mode (30FPS target in favor for higher resolution)
For those planning on playing on last-gen consoles (PS4, PS4 Pro and Xbox One, Xbox One X) the studio didn’t clarify what the target resolution or performance were, they did confirm that those versions would feature a single mode.
Q: What frame rate will the game run on last-gen and on current-gen? Will there be any performance or quality modes players can choose?
A: Similar to many titles released this generation, we’ll offer both performance and quality modes on the high end current gen machines, with a single mode on the last gen consoles. On the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, players will be able to choose between 60fps Performance Mode at reduced resolution, or 30fps Quality Mode at a higher resolution. On the Xbox Series S, players will use Quality Mode.
We speculate that last-gen consoles will likely be targeting 30fps, given that the Xbox Series S version only has quality mode as an option. Just to be on the safe side, we did follow up with Gun Interactive to see if the Xbox Series S only had a quality mode, in which they confirmed the wording was correct: The Xbox Series S will run at 30fps.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre launches August 18 for Xbox (day one Game Pass,) PlayStation, and PC. Stay tuned to our full interview hitting the site soon.
