Analysis of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla<\/em><\/strong>‘s performance on both the PS5 and the Xbox Series X has been one of the most controversial topics of the next-gen console launch. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla<\/em><\/a> saw\u00a0a smoother performance on PS5, while the Xbox Series X saw bigger frame rate drops and screen tearing. A new\u00a0update from Ubisoft specifically targeted toward next-gen consoles, patch 1.04, has now been analyzed. The Xbox Series X specifically has seen improvements, but it also had to sacrifice something in the process.<\/p>\n

According to a new analysis of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla<\/em>\u00a0post-patch 1.04<\/a> from Digital Foundry, the frame drops and screen tearing on Xbox Series X have been dramatically improved. Key sequences where the frame rate would not only drop below 60fps, but would drop dramatically, are now seeing 60 or near-60fps. Scenes where screen tearing would be dramatic, often coinciding with large frame drops, now have little screen tearing. Xbox Series X users should have a much smoother experience.<\/p>\n

But the improvements to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla<\/em>‘s frame rate on Xbox Series X<\/a> didn’t come via simple optimizations, it seems. Ubisoft appears to have made a trade. First, it should be clarified that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla<\/em> uses a dynamic resolution scaler. That means that in order to preserve its 60fps frame rate, the resolution of the game can adjust on the fly. This scaling has a top and a bottom, however. It peaks at 4K resolution and it bottoms out at 1440p. To fix the Xbox Series X frame rate, it dropped this lower resolution threshold.<\/p>\n
