Quantum Break Only Runs At 720p Says Report But It Is Still 'Stunning'
The question of 'p's has hung over this console generation since its inception, but it has quieted down somewhat in the last few months. Most games run at parity on both consoles now and there isn't too much in the way of community in-fighting over the issue, at least as much as there was around launch.
Well, this should test that calm. A report has come out that says that Xbox One console exclusive Quantum Break mostly runs at 720p. Digital Foundry had done tests on Remedy Entertainment's new title and have found that the game mostly runs at lower resolution. They say:
In every scene tested so far, a native resolution of 720p is the consistent result found in each pixel count test, so while there's every possibility of individual render targets operating at higher resolutions, basic geometry that we're able to measure hands in a 720p result as things stand
It is mentioned though that the game is 'impressive looking' and 'stunning' in areas, especially in scenes where it reaches up to 900p. It seems that while the game can't achieve the highest resolutions, it rises above its means to still be beautiful. Hopefully that is enough to keep people from fighting overr pixels
