The calm voice of my suit's AI robot assistant blared its always gentle but chillingly dire warning: '30 seconds of oxygen remaining.' With my oxygen supply slipping past the point-of-no-return for safely getting back to my Seatruck submersible, I snatched up a couple of diamond deposits and sped back up toward safe harbor. But I really needed some diamonds, and at long last there it was. When you're 300 meters below the surface of an alien ocean and your nearest source of oxygen is half that distance away, you turn around when half your air is gone. The underwater sci-fi of 'Subnautica: Below Zero' never escapes shallow waters © Provided by Mashable The underwater sci-fi of 'Subnautica: Below Zero' never escapes shallow waters To learn more about the game, we refer you to the review of Subnautica: Below Zero. Initial loading is a few seconds shorter on PS5, and we had previously seen that the PS5 version weighs 70% less than on PS4. In addition, on PS5 there seems to be a lower density of vegetation and a higher frequency of frame-rate drops, at least for the moment and in the tested sections.

Otherwise, the quality of shadows and textures looks the same on all platforms as does the visual distance, while the dynamic shadows cast by the tools are only visible on PC. The performance mode, which goes to 60 fps, activates the dynamic resolution on all platforms but it seems that the reduction of this is rare or almost absent, according to the detections, while it reduces anti-aliasing and ambient occlusion. In any case, according to the count made by ElAnalistaDeBits it seems that the PS5 version has a resolution of 3328x1872, or just above 1800p, while the Xbox Series X version adopts the 3840x2160 resolution, or full 4K, while Xbox Series S drops to 1600x900, or 900p.

Subnautica: Below Zero contains two modes: graphics quality and performance, but the resolution does not seem to vary between one and the other, despite the transition from 30 to 60 fps.

In both cases the game comes with support for 4K but this resolution is natively reached only by the Microsoft console, according to the source in question. Īccording to the findings of ElAnalistaDeBits, a YouTube channel that has been receiving a lot of attention recently for its rather fast video analysis to arrive online, Subnautica: Below Zero has some advantages in terms of resolution on Xbox Series X compared to PS5. SubnauticaSubnautica: Below Zero is the new version of the famous Unknown Worlds underwater survival, recently arrived on the next gen where, apparently, it is slightly different in technical terms between PS5 and Xbox Series X, as emerges from one of the first video comparisons.
