Ubisoft shares bad news for the Xbox One X/PS4 Pro version of Assassin’s Creed: Origins


Both Microsoft and Sony has powerful mid-life upgrades to their established home consoles now. The PS4 has the updated PS4 Pro while the Xbox One has got the Xbox One X, which was unveiled as recently as E3 2017.

However, fans thinking they are going to get a similar experience on these beefed up consoles to a PC are in for a disappointment. Ubisoft has confirmed that the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X versions of Assassin’s Creed: Origins will be running at 30FPS.

Many fans were hoping the new updated consoles will be capable of running the game at 60FPS but that’s not going to happen. Giving some compensation is the fact that the game will indeed support 4K on both Xbox One X and PS4 Pro.

This was confirmed by Windows Central. They have also mentioned some other notable facts about the console version of the game.

I spoke to a developer from Ubisoft working on that game and inquired about the version parity between PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. He told me that Assassin’s Creed Origins will be 4K at 30 FPS on both the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, which I found a little confusing. If the PS4 Pro can handle 4K 30, how is Assassin’s Creed Origins utilizing the Xbox One X’s additional overhead? It isn’t, apparently.
