Xbox fans and PC enthusiasts will have more to debate with a new comparison of Watch Dogs: Legion on Xbox Series X and PC. A recent examination of mirrors in the game revealed a night-and-day comparison of ray tracing in Watch Dogs: Legion, showing the difference that the graphics tech makes to visual fidelity. Moreover, Ubisoft released a video of the game running on the Xbox Series X in 4K yesterday, continuing anticipation for Microsoft’s next-generation console.
Watch Dogs: Legion has only been out for a few days, with players already exploring every facet of its various activities and customization features. From photographing evidence to recruiting hitmen, Watch Dogs: Legion offers fans more to do than previous installments. Players looking to dive into the game may also consider learning about which NPCs are the best ones to recruit as they add members to their ranks in their quest to take back London.
As Watch Dogs: Legion continues picking up steam, a side-by-side graphics comparison has been released by Cycu1 on YouTube, pitting the Xbox Series X and PC versions against each other. The video mostly showcases each version’s chosen player character walking down the street, using the city’s traffic, lights, and weather as points of comparison. From main city streets to back alleys, fans can get a glimpse of what the game looks like on the Xbox Series X versus a PC using an RTX 3080 GPU by watching the video below.
Given the never-ending drive to make full use of new technological advancements in gaming, it’s unsurprising to see that consoles are starting to rival the graphical quality of their high-end PC counterparts. The video above is a testament to how far consoles have come, as Watch Dogs: Legion looks almost equally impressive on the Xbox Series X as it does the PC using an RTX 3080. However, on close inspection, the differences between them are still noticeable. Both the Xbox Series X and the PC version of Watch Dogs: Legion sport impressive lighting and weather effects, but the RTX 3080 GPU still renders a more realistic aesthetic overall.
More than the differences between the Xbox Series X and a PC using a high-end GPU, these comparison videos inevitably become more about which device is better for gaming: console or PC. The lines in the sand become more blurred over time, but there will always be those stalwart holdouts who believe one is objectively better than the other, despite it being a mostly subjective viewpoint when it comes to any kind of game (except first-person shooters, where a mouse and keyboard is always better). For Watch Dogs: Legion and the rest of the next generation, player preference remains the most important factor.
Watch Dogs: Legion is available on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One; and coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X at launch.
