![]() ![]() Checkerboarding lowers the pixel count but allows the PS5 to deliver a higher level of performance. It's an interesting choice by the developer - the suggestion is that 60fps could not have been achieved by retaining the original release. However, Square-Enix has switched things up now: Pro is still running at 1872p but the PS5 runs at 2160p, with performance enhanced via the accelerant that is checkerboard rendering.

The difference for Microsoft machines is that a progression bug introduced by FPS Boost is now addressed. We can ascertain this simply because the game looks and runs exactly as it did via Microsoft's FPS Boost upgrade: performance is identical, resolutions are the same - 2016p on Series X, 900p on Series S.

For May, those games are Chivalry 2, Descenders, and Grid Legends (available until June 5).A surprise update recently arrived for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, giving the best of both worlds for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles: a high resolution that looks great on 4K displays, in addition to a 60fps target.
