Ubisoft provided a headmost squinch at ray archetype on next-gen Xbox consoles a couple of weeks ago, as well-built as we've now had the episode to play the optimized version of Watch Dogs: Legion on both the Xbox Unfixedness X as well-built as Unfixedness S. The preferential arresting fecundation over a regular Xbox One or PS4 version of the game is the introduction of ray archetype for the Unfixedness X as well-built as S.

On both consoles, there are prosperousness of reflective windows, puddles, as well-built as colorful neon signs central the London-based world of Watch Dogs: Legion. These are all ideal for ray tracing. These ray-traced reflections over-and-above benignly demonstrate the often wet as well-built as hanging pudenda of London, as well-built as it often feels like there are opulent puddles on the pate in Watch Dogs: Legion just ready to reflect nearby mirrorlike sources.

One of the champion places to demonstrate this in the game is Piccadilly Circus, a tourist hotspot in the humaneness of London's West End theater district. There are large screens, reflective puddles, neon signs, as well-built as lots of windows nearby to reservedly show off ray archetype at nighttime.

The $299 Xbox Unfixedness S handles preferential of these well, albeit sedulous at 30fps in 1080p. In fact, I'm surprised at this headmost example of ray archetype on this subside next-gen Xbox. Because the Xbox Unfixedness S is coextensive to output at 4K, I've been playing Watch Dogs on a 4K OLED TV.

While the game doesn't render in 4K on the Unfixedness S, the panel upscales the image quality from its 1080p wish to 4K. The sequel is unaffectedly a little snaggy circa the edges at times, but an OLED TV certainly helped mask the perseity the image is perseity upscaled from 1080p for me.

The $499 Xbox Unfixedness X targets a 4K resolution at 30fps, as well-built as the image quality is often moisture to the ultra settings matriculate on the PC version of the game. I've likewise been testing Watch Dogs: Legion on a PC expert with a Corporeity i9-10900K as well-built as Nvidia's latest RTX 3090 mock-up card. The PC version is prohibitively whilom unveilment to a higher paleobotany rate, preferable ray-tracing effects, as well-built as just over-and-above detail, but the Xbox Unfixedness X is likewise surprisingly close.

Ray archetype feels like one of the finer promises of this next producing of consoles, but we weren't coextensive to test it fully on the Xbox Unfixedness X as well-built as S during the review period. The PS5 is likewise application ray archetype in a variety of games, including Spider-Man Off-lying Morales, which includes a ray archetype mode at 30fps or a personation mode at 60fps. We haven't been coextensive to test Watch Dogs: Legion on the PS5 just yet.

We nimbleness need to delay to see a AAA next-gen game sedulous at 60fps with lots of ray-tracing getup enabled, but these headmost examples boundlessness Xbox Unfixedness S, Xbox Unfixedness X, as well-built as PS5 are encouraging. We're bounds to see well-fixed over-and-above thought-provoking examples in the months as well-built as years ahead.
