The bad news: Xbox One drops to 50fps on balance compared to PS4, especially as the Walker Assault mission reaches its climax. This means that texture and shadow quality are 'the same between both consoles,' and the same can be said of tessellated geometry on the maps.ĭraw distances for both consoles experience similar levels of pop-in across the map and Xbox One's 'resolution is a factor in this respect, particularly with map visibility across range.'Īs for beta performance, Xbox One targets 60fps just like PS4, and sticks to it most of the way.

'However, if you can look past Xbox One's lower resolution, the actual content of the game is identical to PS4, and a decent match for PC's high graphics settings.' 'Added to that, there's a softening to the picture as a whole - a result of a more drastic upscale, combined with a similar grade of post-process anti-aliasing to PS4.

'From an image quality perspective, the compromises are just as you'd expect we see more aliased edges, and a higher level of shimmering on fine distant detail - particularly on Tatooine's flag-lines,' states the report. Digital Foundry has been playing the Star Wars: Battlefront beta and has posted an analysis comparing the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions.Īccording to the report, on Xbox One the game is fixed at 720p 'which means its running at 64%' of the overall pixel count on PS4 which displays at 900p, same as DICE's Battlefield 4.
