It’s hard to call this a definitive statement at this point, but it certainly seems like it. I confess refers to 30 FPS on Xbox Series X|S In terms of performance, according to the developers, Obsidian During an interview at Gamescom 2024.
The information was reported in response to a direct question about Avowed’s performance on consoles: “Performance is Last established“Our primary goal is 30fps minimum, that’s the expectation right now,” Obsidian developer specified when asked by YouTube channel MrMattyPlays, potentially leaving the door open for further improvements from here on out at launch, scheduled for February 18, 2025.
This is a first-person, single-player game. You don’t need to reach 60 FPS.Obsidian explained that this compromise allows you to add additional elements in terms of effects, lighting, and other things.
A compromise for greater graphical richness?
As the discussion continues, it seems that 30fps seems like a more specific choice than it seemed in the first part of the answer: “It bargaining Which we decided very early on and we’re happy with. The game managed to run very smoothly despite being very graphically intensive, which was our goal.
This suggests that 60 FPS is not currently being considered as a potential option by Obsidian on consoles, however the developers ended the discussion with “We are still defining this, however, it is one of the last things to be done in development”, so the question could remain open.
On the other hand, it certainly wouldn’t be the first time such a decision has been made, only to see developments arrive after launch: the cases of Starfield and Redfall are fairly clear in this sense, as they launched with just 30fps and then got to 60fps using Subsequent updates Upon launch.
