God of War Ragnarok PS5 Resolution and Frame Rate Detailed

God of War Ragnarok will go live for pre-order tomorrow July 15 and details around the PS5 resolution have been revealed through the Store promotional material.

God of War Ragnarok will go live for pre-order tomorrow July 15 and details around the PS5 resolution have been revealed through the Store promotional material.

UK Retailer ShopTo has started to send a promotional email for the pre-order of God of War Ragnarok and it contains some information on the PS5 features including 3D Audio.

Based on this information, it has been found that there will be two render modes in the game. One will allow the game to render at native 4K with 30 FPS performance. The other mode will allow the game to run at a dynamic 4K resolution with 60 FPS performance.

  • Feel your journey through the Norse realms, made possible by immersive haptic feedback and adaptive trigger functionality.
  • Take advantage of multidirectional 3D Audio; hear enemies approaching from any direction.
  • Bask in the beautiful worlds you travel through, brought to life by precise art direction and arresting attention to detail.
  • Switch between full 4K resolution at a targeted 30 frames per second, or dynamic resolution upscaled to 4K at a targeted 60fps

Excellent news - 60FPS is the way to go for me. Playing GoW 2018 with the 60FPS update was a night and day difference so glad to see it supported from the start.

I still need to play through God of War for the first time.

Should I do it Era? Especially with Xenoblade 3 so close?

And 6 months after release the 40FPS VRR option will be available

Native 4K is definitely not the future of game rendering, but I guess it's because it's cross-gen that they're doing that. I hope that, despite having a native 4K mode, it will still have noticeable graphical upgrades over the PS4 version. HFW did a solid job making the PS5 version look better with the same graphics modes, so it's possible.

Hopefully as we leave the cross gen period we'll start seeing games that push the visuals a lot harder and focus on new upscaling techniques to give you sharpness instead of wasting power on native 4K.

Expected nothing less tbh. Just hope the 60fps mode image quality is crisp too

Glad that they're offering a proper 60FPS mode at launch. Hope it's just the resolution that takes a hit and not actual graphical settings and that the framerate is fairly stable & locked

I wish they had an unlock framerate for the full 4k/30fps option to future proof it on future hardware through BC.

Yes? I sure as hell hope that you don't plan to skip it and dive right into Ragnarok.
oh I don't plan to play Ragnarok without playing GoW first, just wondering when I should get it done considering I've got a few games coming out soon that I'm slightly more interested in and they're gonna be long games that will take me lots of time to finish because I don't have a lot of downtime to play games

Let's also hope that everything is good day one and that it doesn't take multiple patches to get the framerate mode's IQ smoothed out like Forbidden West. In any case, pretty excited to play this. Considering a replay of the first game on story mode just to get reacquainted with it.

GoW18 was very solid at 30fps, so I'll play that to max out the visuals and switch to 60fps when doing the post-game stuff and on replay.

As expected, but great to hear. PS5 performance modes have been mostly fantastic.
