With the release of Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin for both the Xbox One and PS4, Publisher Namco delivers an amazing package that’s well worth your money. The title includes all of the released content for Dark Souls 2 and has been upgrade to the magical standard of 1080p and 60FPS on both consoles.
Over the past year however it would seem that some games would run better on Sony’s PS4 compared to Microsoft’s Xbox One – mostly because of the DDR5 memory the PS4 uses. In a recent analysis by Eurogamer this would also seem to apply to Scholar of the First Sin.
According to Eurogamer the game’s created next-gen engine comes closest to the developers intention on Sony’s PS4. Eurogamer states that the PS4 version is the best to date, with the Xbox One version coming after that.
“But it’s now clear that PS4 hands in results closest to the developer’s intention. Within the console bracket, it’s no doubt the best version to date, while Xbox One claims second place in the running owing to its less stable frame-rate. By bullishly matching Sony’s platform point-for-point across all graphical settings, Xbox One places Dark Souls 2’s visual presentation above its playability to a certain extent. However, compared to the 20-30fps performance of last-gen releases it ‘s still a fulsome upgrade for owners of Microsoft’s console” According Eurogamer”
