Watch Dogs Legion will run at 4K/30fps with ray-tracing on PS5 and Xbox Series X

Watch Dogs Legion will run at 4K/30fps with ray-tracing enabled on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.

That’s according to the game’s live producer Lathieeshe Thillainathan, who shared the news during a Reddit AMA this weekend.

It’s not clear if the game will feature other performance modes, as has become common in many next-gen games. Codemasters’ Dirt 5, for example, allows users to pick between high-framerate or high-resolution modes, as well as an option for 120fps.

Neither has it been revealed how Watch Dogs will perform on Xbox Series S, although the game was briefly shown running on the console in a video published last month.

Ubisoft recently detailed Watch Dogs Legion’s post-launch roadmap, including the addition of multiplayer this year and new single-player content in 2021. The game’s online modes will arrive as part of a free update on December 3.
