Elden Ring isn’t coming out until next year, but we now know how the highly-anticipated action RPG will look and perform on Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
Publisher Bandai Namco shared a specs and compatibility information sheet that goes into some technical details. For Xbox One and PlayStation, the last generation consoles, Elden Ring will run at 30 FPS. Xbox One will have a max resolution of 1600x900p, while the PlayStation 4 will go up to 1920x1080P. Poor old Xbox One still can barely handle 1080P!
Meanwhile, the mid-generation versions of those consoles fair a bit better. The PlayStation 4 Pro reaches resolutions of 3200x1800P, while the Xbox One X supports up to 3840x2160P. Both consoles are still capped at 30 FPS, though. Not bad.
PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the current generation consoles, will flex some technical muscle with Elden Ring. Both of them support 3840x2160P resolutions with a cap of 60 FPS. So yeah, the console versions of Elden Ring will look best on these machines. Total shocker, I know. The Xbox Series S, however, will only support up to 2560x1440P.
Time hastens on, friend. There is no fitter moment than now.

PC system requirements are still a no-show, sadly. We do know, however, that it’ll support 3840x2160P resolutions and have a 60 FPS cap. Bummer for those of us with high refresh rate monitors!
Elden Ring will also support ray-tracing on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and PC, but that’s coming until a post-launch patch.
The hype for Elden Ring is reaching a boiling point, especially as fans continue to go wild on social media. There’s a beta coming soon, thankfully, which should help mend the souls of anyone jumping up and down in anticipation for FromSoftware’s latest. At least we have that Bloodborne demake coming out soon to hold us over for a bit.
