- Star Wars Outlaws features three display modes: Quality, Favor Quality, and Performance.
- In addition to the standard 30FPS and 60FPS offerings, Massive Entertainment is providing a mode for 40FPS on VRR-supported displays.
- Each mode targets different resolutions, allowing fans to choose the most comfortable option.
Ubisoft’s ambitious Star Wars game is right around the corner, and the anticipation is building extensively since recent previews look solid, and fans are quite excited.
Although the PC requirements were already made public a while ago, Ubisoft has yet to share official information on console display modes. However, leaks from a recent stream have confirmed that the game includes three display modes.
Why it matters: Upcoming games like Avowed are coming without 60FPS modes on consoles, so fans are always curious to learn about frame rate targets for new releases.
The review codes for Star Wars Outlaws were sent out a few days ago, and it seems the game is being streamed on Kick.
One such stream has revealed information about the display modes, confirming that Massive Entertainment is offering the standard choice between 30FPS(Quality) and 60FPS(Performance). However, the team is also offering a balanced mode that sits in between.
The Favor Quality mode targets 40FPS on displays that support a 120Hz refresh rate. This mode seemingly runs at a dynamic 4K resolution, while performance mode sees the resoltuon dropping to 1440p.
Favor Quality is said to be targeting 4K, but the actual resolutions will likely be lower in practice, as with most games on PS5 and Xbox Series S|X.
All things considered, Star Wars Outlaws should perform similarly to Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Massive Entertainment’s Snowdrop tech is known for being quite impressive, so fans should not be too concerned on this end.
Star Wars Outlaws arrives on August 30, marking a bold step forward for gaming adaptations of this iconic IP. Massive Entertainment has taken care to ensure it breaks from Ubisoft’s traditional formula, creating palpable excitement ahead of release.
