Crimson Desert PS5 Performance Specs
The PlayStation 5 performance specs for Crimson Desert look pretty strong. The game boasts about running the game on an upscaled 4k from 1440p with 30 FPS and high Raytracing in the Quality graphics option. However, to get 60 FPS, you will have to set the game to Performance and play it at 1080p with Raytracing Low. Overall, the performance looks solid, and I am sure PS5 players would be happy with it.
| Graphics | Resolution | Target Performance | Raytracing Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance | 1080p | 60 FPS VSync / 60+ FPS VRR** | Raytracing Low |
| Balanced | Upscaled 4K (from 1280p, FSR 3) | 40 FPS VSync* | Raytracing Low |
| Quality | Upscaled 4K (from 1440p, FSR 3) | 30 FPS VSync | Raytracing High |
Crimson Desert PS5 Pro Performance Specs
The PS5 Pro specs for Crimson Desert are the best out of all the consoles. It promises a pure 4K gameplay without upscaling at 30 FPS and with ultra Raytracing. When turning the settings to performance, you are still promised Upscaled 4k from 1080p at 60 FPS with Raytracing set to high.
| Graphics | Resolution | Target Performance | Raytracing Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance | Upscaled 4K (from 1080p, Upgraded PSSR) | 60 FPS VSync / 60+ FPS VRR** | Raytracing High |
| Balanced | Upscaled 4K (from 1440p, Upgraded PSSR) | 40 FPS VSync* / 48+ FPS VRR** | Raytracing High |
| Quality | 4K | 30 FPS VSync | Raytracing Ultra |
Crimson Desert Xbox Series S Performance Specs
The Xbox Series S performance for Crimson Desert is the worst out of all the consoles, and it makes sense as it is the budget option here. You are still promised to get 30 FPS at 1080p with Raytracing off at Quality settings. Sadly, even at Performance settings that console fails to hit 60 FPS, instead giving 40 FPS at 720p resolution.
| Graphics | Resolution | Target Performance | Raytracing Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance | 720p | 40 FPS VSync* | Raytracing Off |
| Quality | 1080p | 30 FPS VSync | Raytracing Off |
Crimson Desert Xbox Series X Performance Specs
The Xbox Series X performance is a lot better than its cheaper counterpart. You almost get the same performance specs as the PlayStation 5.
| Graphics | Resolution | Target Performance | Raytracing Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance | 1080p | 60 FPS VSync / 60+ FPS VRR** | Raytracing Low |
| Balanced | Upscaled 4K (from 1280p, FSR 3) | 40 FPS VSync* | Raytracing Low |
| Quality | Upscaled 4K (from 1440p, FSR 3) | 30 FPS VSync | Raytracing High |
So, this is the Crimson Desert console performance specs for PS5, PS5 Pro, and Xbox Series S/X. Excluding the Xbox Series S, all the other consoles can run Crimson Desert comfortably with Raytracing on. The PlayStation 5 Pro clearly stands out as the best console to run this game.
