Digital Foundry: Avowed on PS5 Largely On Par With Series X|S, VRR Adds Subtle Edge

Digital Foundry compares Avowed on PS5 to Xbox Series X|S, noting PS5’s VRR helps unlocked modes run smoothly and can edge ahead in performance, while Series X visuals are broadly on par with PS5 Pro. Both platforms offer 30fps quality, 40fps balanced, and 60fps performance modes, with quality mode targeting 1440p and other modes at lower resolutions; the differences are subtle, and DF recommends watching the video or reading the full written review for the complete analysis.
