Black Myth: Wukong - What To Expect From PlayStation 5?

[elgoblinospark]

The most hated sentence In the PC gaming space "Hopefully It Will Be Fixed at Launch" It never does.

Over 4000 frames by eye?


This is why DF is a leader in game performance critiquing.

[kbthegoat]

Game is releasing tomorrow and we're still wondering how it runs on the only console it's coming out on?

[TheFirstRealChewy]

We'll know what it looks like tomorrow. There might be a bit of a Cyberpunk situation going on here, but hopefully it's nowhere near as bad.

[colaboytje]

The fact that they did not allow review copies for PS5, is a huge warning sign.

[kevinking]

I think it's safe to say most PS5 users who haven't already pre-ordered are waiting on performance analysis first.

[WVRN]

Well you know you’re not playing at true 4K on the PS5, honestly 1080p 60 on a performance mode with the game still looking nice sounds about right to me.

[mza]

Not long left now. We'll be able to judge for ourselves very soon.

If this does turn out to be a Cyberpunk 2077 situation, I'll just go and play some games from my backlog. My backlog is huge, so there's plenty of games to choose from. Eventually when they fix Black Myth Wukong, I'll pick it up on sale and play it. I've been looking forward to this game ever since it was first shown. There's no way I'm gonna play a broken version of the game.

For those who are reading, hope you have a nice day.

It's actually sad that UE5 can barely do 40fps at 1080p on PS5-like hardware with a handful of rocks, a couple of trees, some vegetation and a little bit of water and NOTHING going on.

[Alovon]

I say if there's a ton of Compression Articacts in the IGN Footage its probably a mix of their recording setup exaggerating issues with FSR-FG (and whatever Upscaling they're using)

[BlindedbyLight]

It's really sad this game doesn't support HDR.

[grcigar]

The lack of transparency up to this point is just sad. If there are any overly negative performance issues, the game in hindsight shouldn’t have been released until it’s actually ready. Building up hype and a community of fans only to destroy that trust. We shall know soon, but keeping lowered expectations in mind.

[NANOTECHYT]

I hate the fizzle on modern games because of TAA and it's just become worse over time as DLSS, FSR etc all use TAA's underlying principle. What used to be a nice crisp image at 1080p is now blocky whenever particles appear. Just looks terrible, even at 4K.

[MCtok]

I already bought and downloaded the ps5 version can’t wait

[timoh]

Don’t give a F, I am playing this game on PS5

[Koozwad]

looks like heavy upscaling usage to maintain playable FPS

[faustianblur]

Dropping into the 30s and 40s with frame-gen on means the game is actually running in the teens and 20s. That's on a relatively tame looking boss fight compared to some of the footage we've seen from elsewhere in the game. I can't see this being much fun on the base PS5.

[BUPMY]

If the PS5 version is heading towards a mess, then why didn't the developers just delay it along with the Xbox Series S/X versions?

[mwsharpshooter]

Something tells me the Performance mode might be similar to FF16 where it just fails are being a performance mode and we're averaging 30-45 most the time.
