Why Fortnite Is Better On PS4 Than Xbox One Now

Fortnite PS4 vs Xbox One

Fortnite has dominated the gaming scene for quite some time now, being one of the biggest gaming phenomenons ever. The game is available on multiple platforms, but console gamers have the toughest decision to make when deciding which one to play it on. While the Switch version will get the job done and is great if you want to play on the go, we’ll be focusing on the PS4 and Xbox One versions considering they are superior from a performance standpoint.

Fortnite PS4 vs Xbox One

For those unfamiliar with the game, the Battle Royale mode of Fortnite drops 100 players into a large area as they all battle to be the last man standing. The catch here is that the map is constantly shrinking as a storm slowly moves inward, resulting in players moving closer to each other and forcing shootouts to take place. A game with a map this large and 100 players is going to require solid hardware to play it at an optimal level, and this is where the PlayStation 4 wins out over the Xbox One.

Fortnite simply performs better on PlayStation 4 than on Xbox One, keeping a smooth framerate even during hectic shootouts. The Xbox One version can’t claim the same, as it has the worst performance of all the consoles. Players can expect some framerate dips, and obviously the resolution isn’t as high as that of the PS4’s. This all changes if you’re playing on the Xbox One X compared to the PS4 or even the more powerful PS4 Pro, but considering that the majority of gamers own the standard versions of these consoles we’re focusing on them instead.

The one big win that the Xbox One version had over the PS4 version was that it allowed cross-platform play with all versions of the game, whereas PS4 didn’t. However, that is all changing now as Sony has announced that the first game that will support PS4 cross-play is Fortnite. This means that PS4 players will soon be able to play with Xbox One, Switch, PC and mobile players, which puts PS4 on a level playing field in terms of cross-play functionality support.

A smaller reason the PS4 version wins out over Xbox One has to do with the controllers that each console contains, though this will largely come down to personal preference. Many consider the PS4’s DualShock 4 to be the best controller that Sony has ever released, whereas the Xbox One controller is considered to be a step down from the Xbox 360’s. The PS4’s DualShock 4 triggers feel much better than the Xbox One controller’s bumpers, which makes the PS4 the go-to platform for any kind of shooter. Gunning down your opponents simply feels better on PS4 than it does on Xbox One.

When it comes down to it, if you’ve got a PlayStation 4 and an Xbox One and are debating which platform you should play Fortnite on, PS4 is the clear winner. It looks and performs better on Sony’s console, and with the addition of full cross-play support it will no longer lack anything that any of the other versions of the game have. You can’t go wrong no matter which version of the game you pick, but our pick easily goes to the PS4 version.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
