For Microsoft’s two new systems, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has a number of shared improvements, but we’ll break down what we know of the game’s performance on each one separately.
On Xbox Series X, Valhalla will benefit from a 4K resolution at 60FPS, with super-fast load times thanks to the Xbox’s Velocity Architecture and DirectStorage API.
For Xbox Series S, Valhalla will also benefit from the fast loading times and Smart Delivery, allowing Xbox One players to bring their save over to the next-gen consoles.
Unfortunately what isn’t yet clear is exactly what resolution and FPS Valhalla will play at on Xbox Series S. Ubisoft hasn’t shared this information yet, but we’d expect it to probably run it at around 1080p 60FPS. We’ll update to confirm as and when we know for sure.
