A new video gives a pretty extensive graphics comparison between Assassin's Creed Valhalla running on the PS5 and Xbox Series X.

You can see the nine-minute video in full just below, which starts right in the prologue of Assassin's Creed Valhalla with a young Eivor. The most obvious thing to note is that both PS5 and Xbox Series X are able to maintain a smooth 60 frames per second, right through the whole video.

It's a pretty impressive look at just how powerful both these next-gen consoles are. Assassin's Creed Valhalla looks absolutely stunning running in 60FPS, through both combat and cutscenes alike. I've been playing Valhalla on the PS4 in 30FPS, and the boost to 60FPS really makes the game look fluid.

  • Assassin's Creed Shadows screenshot showing female protagonist Naoe Assassin's Creed Shadows features "will make their way to other games," franchise lead says

At times in Valhalla, you'll have well over 20 characters onscreen in a massive brawl in various raid missions. Valhalla's frame rate doesn't drop on current-gen consoles during these sections, and it also doesn't decrease from 60FPS on both next-gen consoles, from the looks of the comparison video above.

If you want to see what we made of the latest entry in Ubisoft's historical epic, head over to our complete Assassin's Creed Valhalla review. Alternatively, you can check out our main page of Assassin's Creed Valhalla tips, for all the key information you need to get going in the early hours of the game.
