[QUOTE="Admin, post: 70458, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2026/01/29/crimsonthumb-1769696073715.png[/IMG] [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/crimson-desert']Crimson Desert[/URL] developer Pearl Abyss has finally detailed how well the game will run on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, just over a week before its launch date. As you'd expect, there's a wide range of performance benchmarks across the console spectrum, from the lesser-powered Xbox Series S right up to the beefy PlayStation 5 Pro. For each machine, including the base PS5 and Xbox Series X, the developer has also included details for up to three modes (Performance, Balanced and Quality), and there are details of both resolution and "target performance" in terms of frame rate, as well as the quality of raytracing enabled. But while Pearl Abyss has now confirmed these performance figures for consoles, there's no new footage of the game running on consoles today. The console versions of Crimson Desert have recently come under scrutiny, with Pearl Abyss accused by some fans online of hiding the game's PlayStation and Xbox versions prior to launch — [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/crimson-desert-dev-sick-of-having-to-repeatedly-deny-hiding-console-footage-as-some-fear-another-cyberpunk-console-launch-situation']something that has sparked fears of Cyberpunk 2077-style debacle[/URL], where the game's lesser-powered and buggy console versions were not shown at all before release. Last week, however, a spokesperson for the highly-anticipated open-world action game begged fans to "let us cook" and show the console version when it was ready — even though we are now just days from the game's arrival. "We're not hiding anything, and I'm sick of having to repeat myself," Pearl Abyss spokesperson Will Powers said at the time. "I've repeated 100s of times that we'll reveal things ahead of launch to give people adequate time to still preorder the game for themselves. We're saying this openly... Let us cook? Please and thank you. /rant" Today also brings a look at the game's various technical specifications for PC (as well as Mac and ROG Ally). Ultra graphics on PC will require an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, to hit 4K 60fps.
