It was revealed during Epic Game’s State of Unreal presentation that The Witcher IV will run at 60fps on PS5. This is thanks toimprovements made to Unreal Engine 5, which is being used for The Witcher IV.
The Witcher IV Looks Incredible On Consoles
This initial gameplay footageof The Witcher IV looks absolutely stunning, with Ciri’s horse, Kelpie, having muscle movement beneath its skin to make its appearance as realistic as possible, especially when it’s running.
The lighting, water effects, and foliage are equally as impressive, making the world of The Witcher look better than it has ever done before. A small village was also depicted, with people going about their daily activities and realistically interacting with the environment.
The only aspect of gameplay that was sorely lacking was combat, which was notably absent from the trailer. However, The Witcher IV is still a long ways off, so the developers are likely saving this for a future showcase.
Naturally, fans might be a bit skeptical of this performance ahead of launch, thanks to a certain other CD Projekt Red from a few years ago that seriously underwhelmed on consoles at launch. If thisfootage of The Witcher IVrunning in Unreal Engine 5.6 is legit, then it might become the best-looking game on the PS5.
