Ghostwire Tokyo, de aankomende action thriller game van Tango Gameworks (makers van The Evil Within-games), heeft maar liefst zes performance modi op de PlayStation 5.
Spelers krijgen veel keuze met een prioriteit op resolutie, framerate, Ray Tracing en meer. Dit zijn de zes performance modi op de PlayStation 5:
Quality Mode
With quality mode, you can expect Ghostwire Tokyo to run at a capped 30fps at 4K* resolution. Additional features such as Ray-tracing reflections are enabled, as well as other graphical improvements. This is the mode recommended for those who prefer quality above performance.
Performance Mode
With performance mode, Ghostwire Tokyo will run at a capped 60fps. This comes at the cost of resolution, as well as the loss of real time Ray-tracing in favor for spatial reflection along with other graphical details. This mode is ideal for those who favor performance above all else, and are looking for a near locked 60fps experience.
High Frame-Rate Quality Mode
Using 30fps as its baseline, High Frame-Rate quality mode is like quality mode, only with the removal of the frame cap. This means you should expect to see performance running between 40-50fps generally.
As good as that may sound, I actually don’t recommend playing with this mode for one very good reason, that being screen tearing. HFR Quality Mode suffers severely from screen tears during gameplay that it was instantly noticeable upon turning this mode on. Sadly, that same screen tearing mode also appeared in the performance variation of this mode.
High Frame-Rate Performance Mode
Like performance mode, High Frame-Rate performance mode in Ghostwire Tokyo targets 60fps as the baseline, but is able to go higher since it’s uncapped. From our testing, we generally saw performance hitting above 60FPS, however dips from those higher counts were noticeable. And like the HFR quality mode, HFR performance also suffered from severe screen tearing.
Note: Tango Gameworks has acknowledged to us around the screen tearing issues surrounding HFR quality and HFR Performance modes. We do know a patch will be released prior to launch to address some issues, so this may change.
High Frame-Rate Quality Mode With V-Sync/High Frame-Rate Performance Mode With V-Sync
The final two modes are the same as HFR quality and HFR performance only with V-Sync enabled. These are actually the modes I recommend as testing showed that those screen tearing issues were essentially absent. Now HFR performance mode with V-Sync still saw some dip spikes, but at least the screen tearing was mostly gone.
Of the two modes, however, I do recommend opting for HFR quality with V-sync as it felt like the better experience overall. It’s comparable to Resident Evil Village 45fps RT mode, or even to that of both Spider-Man and Ratchet and Clank performance RT modes. You do sacrifice a bit of the image quality as we assume the resolution is targeting lower than 4K, but that is really hard to tell during actual gameplay.
Ghostwire Tokyo verschijnt op 25 maart 2022 voor de PlayStation 5 en de PC. Wie de Deluxe Edition koopt, mag drie dagen eerder met de game aan de slag. Ook krijgen deze mensen een Shinobi Outfit, Kunai Weapon en Streetwear Fashion Pack als extra’s.
