How is Xcom 2 War of the Chosen performance on PS4 Pro?

[HDMF76]

Reading the Polygon review which gave PC 9.5 and PS4 a rating of 7 solely due to technical issues, I wondered if any patches have sorted the framerate and screen tearing issues?

In the base game I struggled to enjoy it at times due to poor optimisation, and so if the Xpac is worse I know I need to avoid it.

Any advice will be appreciated.

I play it in Xbox One X and it still struggles in some places. Especially when the Lost show up ie a lot of bodies on screen.

The game sometimes hangs between turns. Shame since it's a cracking game too. It's poorly optimised.

I was also interested in the game but afaik the performance on Pro is still bad. Framerate issues (with only 30fps in general) and bad load times from what I've read. So I ignored the game for now.

Thanks guys unfortunately sounds like one to skip.

Sorry for the necro bump, but this is on sale right now and I'm thinking of buying it. Has performance on PS4 Pro gotten better?

I played the base game on PS4 regular and I remember there being EXTREMELY long load times.

I was hoping that between upgrading to a Pro and a new expansion being released that the performance has improved.

Can anyone share their experiences on a PS4 Pro with the latest patch of War of the Chosen?

Performance on the PS4 Pro is unlikely to improve, simply because the performance issues are caused by the game stressing the CPU, and the CPUs in these consoles being garbage compared to even Zen 1 CPUs, never mind the Zen 2 CPUs coming to the next gen consoles.
