One of the many improvements the PS5 Pro brings to console gaming is Game Boost. Thanks to its improved GPU, older titles can get performance boosts without implementing a large update. This may be true of Elden Ring, which struggles to maintain a locked 60 frames per second on base PS5s. With Game Boost, that is potentially no longer an issue.
Elden Ring Tarnished Edition for Switch 2 appears on Amazon as a game key card, priced at $79.99 with expansion included.
Because this is the ONLY version you can buy on the S2, correct? I don't think you can buy just the game for $60 like the other platforms. And if I'm wrong about this, then I take it back.
@repsahj - Dude, shut up. I like Nintendo a lot, actually. I just want the option to get the base game for $60 WITHOUT the DLC. I've done plenty of "analyzing".
Before anyone complains, this is the same price on PlayStation, Xbox and Steam. It comes with the Game and the DLC.
The standard edition physical should have been 40 then with the expansion seperate. Why normalize 80 dollar games? Specially ports of old games.
If people accept this might as well make physical 80 dollar deluxe versions only.
@repsahj
The ps5 has the standard version and the 80$ version so it gives you the choice...on switch 2 physical you can only buy the 80 dollar version.
I guess since they got the data that less than half of elden ring players beat the game and would probably not buy the DLC, they decided to just not make it an option and charge more...
Like it or not, the vast majority of game sales are digital. Just like movies, and music. At least Gamekey cards are shareable and you can sell them.
A newly uncovered piece of cut content from Elden Ring has revealed an intriguing plot thread that never made it into the final game.
Red Dead Redemption 2 mod turns the game into Elden Ring, adding spells, boss fights, and Uncle as the final boss.
'may', 'potentially'... which means you don't know.
Shouldn't this be a 'opinionpiece'?!?
This would be pretty sweet if true I'll hold my breath tho this generation has been nothing more than smoke and mirrors. Potentially next gen will be better than this gen give us real facts not maybes
Elden Ring is CPU-heavy so it really depends. The PS5 Pro has a slight CPU boost frequency that can kick in, though it downclocks the GPU. That should give a more consistent framerate but it might not be locked at 60, it'll need to be tested.
I wish From did a better job of optimizing Elden Ring in the first place. 2 and a half years later and it still is messy on all platforms.
