The Medium<\/em><\/strong> has been pitched as a game with cutting-edge visuals since its (re)announcement in mid-2020. It was being positioned as an Xbox Series X\/S launch title at the time, though it’d be released on PC as well. Now that The Medium<\/em><\/a> is available on both platforms, players can see for themselves just how The Medium<\/em> performs. And while The Medium<\/em> definitely strives to deliver on its visual promises, at least on PC it sounds like poor optimization has limited the horror game’s potential.<\/p>\n

DSOGaming is reporting that The Medium<\/em> struggles to deliver consistent performance even on high-end PC hardware. The outlet says that the review code it was provided by The Medium<\/em> developer Bloober Team struggles to maintain 60FPS even on a PC with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 graphics card<\/a> and other similarly impressive components. Worse, that’s at a resolution of just 1080p, with standard High settings.<\/p>\n

Compounding the issues is the fact that The Medium<\/em> also offers players the opportunity to turn on ray tracing. Ray tracing is a graphics feature that, depending on its implementation, can vastly improve lighting and shadows. DSOGaming’s testing of The Medium<\/em> on PC<\/a> had ray tracing turned off. In other words, using ray tracing on PC even with an expensive RTX 3080 graphics card would make the game’s performance even worse.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

One example that DSOGaming shows is an example of The Medium<\/em> running at 1440p, High settings, and DLSS turned on. Without ray tracing enabled<\/a>, the game is shown at 50 and 53FPS. With ray tracing enabled, the game is shown at 43 and 46FPS. That’s with the frame-improving DLSS technology that newer Nvidia graphics cards support turned on. A scene at 1080p is also shown running at around 52FPS, though DSOGaming does acknowledge that this is without DLSS enabled.<\/p>\n

The report attributes the lack of optimization to Bloober Team’s\u00a0general efforts with\u00a0PC version of the game first, but second to its graphics choices for the Xbox Series X\/S version of The Medium<\/em><\/a>. The Medium<\/em> on Xbox Series X\/S is apparently capped at 30FPS. If Bloober Team had Xbox performance as its priority, then it makes a lot of sense why the PC version wouldn’t improve dramatically on that.<\/p>\n

Luckily, PC performance is one thing that Bloober Team<\/a> should be able to improve with continued development post-launch. Those playing The Medium<\/em> on PC should definitely make their voices heard and ensure that Bloober Team doesn’t work to give players more frames.<\/p>\n

The Medium<\/strong><\/em> is available now on PC and Xbox Series X\/S.<\/p>\n
