[Update] Shortly after the Starfield FSR 2, DLSS 2 comparison by Frozburn went live, ElAnalistaDeBits shared a comparison video putting the PC and console versions side by side, highlighting how the Xbox Series S version is rather well optimized, running at steady 30 FPS in most scenarios and without massive visual compromises, compared to the Xbox Series X version.
[Original Story]A new Starfield comparison video was shared online today, putting the game running at native 4K resolution, with AMD FSR 2 and modded NVIDIA DLSS 2 upscalers side by side to highlight the visual differences.
The comparison's footage, which was put together by Frozburn, was captured on a powerful machine featuring an Intel i9-13900K CPU and RTX 4090 GPU and highlights how, while performance is identical for both FSR 2 and DLSS 2, the image quality is slightly better and clearer with DLSS 2. As modded Frame Generation support is eventually coming thanks to modder PureDark, there's no doubt that Starfield will be experienced best on PC with NVIDIA's tech.
Even without modding the game for better visual quality, Starfield is a worthy purchase of any role-playing game, as it is an engaging experience and one of the best Bethesda has put out in a very long time, as I highlighted in my review.
With an engaging story, well-developed characters and lore, and a huge amount of meaningful content, Starfield is one of Bethesda's finest games and one of the best role-playing games released in the past few years. The lack of seamless exploration and real innovation of the typical gameplay formula from the studio are noteworthy, but those willing to forego these issues will find a reactive and sprawling sci-fi universe to lose themselves in for hundreds, if not thousands, of hours.
Starfield is now available on PC, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S for those who purchased the game's Digital Premium or Constellation Editions. The game will launch for everyone else and on Xbox Game Pass on September 6th.
