PS5 and PS5 Pro performance
The FAQ cites Digital Foundry recommending Performance mode, targeting 60 FPS, on both consoles. Balanced mode has frame-pacing problems that VRR does not fix; Graphics mode can judder. A target is not a guarantee of a locked frame rate.
PS5 Pro adds a ray-tracing toggle and PSSR upscaling for a sharper image. The game offers three modes, but the Performance recommendation applies to both base PS5 and Pro. The performance guide’s console section explains the tradeoffs.
PC: Steam, Epic and handheld limitations
The PC version uses Unreal Engine 5 and requires an SSD. The recorded installation size is approximately 145 GB. Steam lists Denuvo; the linked source notes do not verify the same DRM status for every other storefront.
The FAQ records no Valve Steam Deck rating. Its cited late-October handheld test averaged 23–27 FPS at the lowest settings, so desktop availability should not be read as a handheld performance promise. Read the PC requirements and settings guide before buying for your hardware. For third-party PC tools, see the mod and trainer guidance.
Xbox in 2027: what is confirmed?
The 12-month console exclusivity window runs to late October 2027. No Xbox version, Game Pass release or Xbox launch date is announced in the FAQ’s snapshot. The window ending and a port being confirmed are separate events.
See the Xbox exclusivity breakdown for that distinction.
Cross-save and crossplay
No PS5-to-PC cross-save has been announced. Steam Cloud syncs across PCs only; the FAQ marks the cross-save status as an inference from store pages and the absence of an announcement. Do not assume a save can transfer between storefronts.
The game is single-player, with no co-op, PvP or crossplay. If you want to compare digital extras with a future physical purchase, use the edition guide.
