Avowed’s PlayStation 5 debut arrived alongside the RPG’s anniversary update, and Digital Foundry has now published a platform comparison. Their analysis puts the Xbox Series X and PS5 Pro builds in close visual agreement, while the Series S predictably differs in a few technical areas.

  • The anniversary patch that landed earlier on Xbox and PC accompanies the PS5 release and implements sizable content and technical updates, bringing the same baseline to all current-gen versions.
  • Digital Foundry’s breakdown compared fidelity and performance across PS5, Xbox Series X and Series S, focusing on rendering quality and frame-rate behaviour rather than story or gameplay additions.
  • The headline finding: Series X visuals are very similar to what Digital Foundry observed on PS5 Pro hardware, suggesting near-parity at the top end of current consoles.
  • Series S shows clearer differences in the comparison, with DF highlighting where the console scales settings to hit performance targets compared with its more powerful siblings.
  • For players deciding which platform to buy or to revisit Avowed on, DF’s report gives a clear sense of visual and performance expectations across Microsoft and Sony hardware.
