Ubisoft has detailed the console and PC specifications for the upcoming Prince of Persia The Lost Crown.
Due to the game being a fast-paced action title requiring precision, Ubisoft has ensured that the game targets at least 60FPS on all platforms, including the Nintendo Switch (both docked and handheld), PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. According to Ubisoft, when playing on consoles, players can expect “expect smooth performance regardless of platform”.
On Nintendo’s hybrid platform, the 2D adventure runs at 1080p@60FPS in docked mode, whereas in handheld mode, the game runs at 720p@60FPS. Meanwhile, the Xbox Series S players can expect 60FPS at 1440p resolution. As expected, those on PS5 and Xbox Series X can play the game at up to 120FPS at 4K resolution. For those playing the title on the original PS4 and Xbox One, expect 60FPS at 1080p. The game’s Xbox One X and PS4 Pro versions run at 4K resolution at 60FPS.
