What you need to know

  • Bandai Namco has detailed its performance targets for Elden Ring on console and PC, including expected resolution, FPS, features, and more across various hardware
  • Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles deliver 4K resolution and 1440p resolution, respectively, with 60 frames-per-second (FPS) available via an optional performance mode.
  • The game will also support ray tracing on Xbox Series X via a future patch.

The PC version remains the best available experience, capping out at 4K resolution and 60 FPS, with optional HDR and ray tracing support. The Xbox Series X version delivers up to 4K resolution, while the Xbox Series S targets 1440p. The game also targets up to 60 FPS via its performance mode on consoles, which means there will be a sacrifice of visuals. Ray tracing will be exclusive to the Xbox Series X, but not offered on the Xbox Series S.

The Xbox One versions are offering a 900p experience, while the Xbox One X also striving for 4K resolution. They come with an expected 30FPS cap, with HDR also missing from Xbox One and Xbox One S versions. While not the best outcome, it is still a way to experience the game if you're still having difficulty securing an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S console.
