Settings Ray-Tracing | RTX 4080/3080/3070Ti/3060Ti/3050 | 32Gb DDR5 | i9 12900K - This comparison has been made with the launch patch applied on all platforms. - Performance mode on PS5/Series X has a lower dynamic resolution, closer to 1872p on average with temporal reconstruction. Both maintain a similar resolution in the tested areas. - Quality mode on PS5/Series X adds better shadows and ray-tracing reflections on certain surfaces, although other reflections will still be represented by SSR. At this time, Series X has no ray-tracing reflections. This is most likely a bug with the Quality mode. - Xbox Series S does not benefit from Ray-Tracing in this game. It also has some clipping in texturing and global illumination. - The PC version needs an urgent patch. Its performance is very erratic, with constant stuttering and even freezes. I speculate with a bad VRAM management when loading assets and scenarios. - Some visual additions for Ray-Tracing are interesting, but I do not consider that they justify the sacrifice of losing 60fps for it on console. I would choose the performance mode. - Along with Gears 5, The Callisto Protocol is some of the most visually impressive work I’ve seen in Unreal Engine 4. It’s a shame it’s marred by that poor performance on PC. - Except for the absence of Ray-Tracing in X-Series quality mode, I consider any currentgen console version a good choice to enjoy this game. - On the other hand, I don’t like to discourage a video game, but I consider that the PC version should not be currently on sale.
