Call of Duty Advanced Warfare 1080p Video Comparison: PS4 Superior But Xbox One Not Too Far Behind

Sledgehammer Games have almost achieved parity for the year's biggest game.

Call of Duty Advanced Warfare (1)

Last year’s Call of Duty Ghosts ran at 1080p on the PlayStation 4 and at 720p on the Xbox One. Since then Microsoft have made significant progression in providing better development tools to game studios so that multiplatform games look and feel similar to the PlayStation 4 version. This was apparent in Bungie’s Destiny wherein both the versions ran at 1080p resolution. So there is no doubt that Microsoft are working hard to improve their SDK and tools, and slowly but surely they are getting up there.

Call of Duty Advanced Warfare is one of 2014’s hottest games and Sledgehammer Games have achieved almost equal results on both the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game. The game runs at native 1080p on the PS4 whereas the Xbox One version employs a dynamic resolution of 1360×1080 which can jump to the golden 1920×1080 resolution, depending on the on-screen action. Other than this, the PlayStation 4 version seems to have better image quality but the differences can only be seen via static images [see below.].

We found next to no differences when there is ongoing action in the screen, as evident in the video below. The lighting effects, texture filtering, anti-aliasing, motion blur, depth of field, all seem similar across the PS4 and Xbox One versions.  Check out the video and screenshots below and let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. Check out us again, as we will gauge how the current gen versions stack up against the last gen versions with the PC SKU set in the mix.
