Update (26/08/23): While both PS5 and Xbox Series X use the same native resolutions, it's worth noting there is a sharper end result on PS5 overall in comparisons. The base 720p image only plays one part here for each - and potentially we're looking at a different use of post processing. We'll update again once we have confirmation as to what the cause is.

A brand new Unreal Engine 5.1 title lands in immortals of Aveum - a debut project from Ascendant Studios who make the most of features like nanite and lumen. The turnout on a tech level is one of the most fascinating games we've seen on PS5, Series X and S to date. However there are technical shortcomings, with image quality in particular taking a hit in order to target 60 frames per second on each console.

This game had a launch peak of nearly 800. Not thousand, hundred. That's all I need to know.

Then you really don't want to know a lot I guess. This indicates nothing about the quality. Could be marketing failure, overly high system requirement targets, financial crisis lessening buying power or simply one of the best games nobody has played like Psychonauts 1, because they were out of the current trends.

Marketing failure. Everything from the name to the lack of ads.

Also stupid high system reqs. A game that looks that bad should not require a 2080.

If it’s got a good single player then what does it matter?

There are plenty of good games out there that fewer people have played.
