Call of Duty: Warzone Supports 120 FPS on Xbox Series X, But Not on PS5

Performance is significantly better on Microsoft's console.

It seems Infinity Ward have sneakily added in 120 FPS support to the free-to-play battle royale shooter Call of Duty: Warzone on Xbox Series X, without much fanfare. As Digital Foundry points out, the game targets 120 FPS on the console, and generally stays in the 100-120 frames per second range.

What’s interesting, however, is that the same update hasn’t been applied to the game on the PS5, where the shooter hits a maximum of 60 FPS even in performance mode. That’s probably down to how the PS5 handles backward compatibility. Since Warzone is technically a PS4 game, Infinity Ward would most likely have to develop a native PS5 port of the game to add 120 FPS support.

This isn’t the first game that’s had this issue. Rocket League will support 120 FPS on Xbox Series X/S, but not on PS5, with the developers stating that the console’s backward compatibility toolset is to blame. Meanwhile, Star Wars; Squadrons, too, has similar disparities across PlayStation and Xbox.

Of course, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which is out now, does support 120 FPS across all next-gen consoles. Warzone will be integrated with Black Ops Cold War next month.
