Continuing our coverage on Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, GamingBolt had the opportunity to ask a few questions to the Overkill Software’s producer Almir Listo. In our interview, we were able to ask a few questions revolving around the resolution and frame rate that Payday 2: Crimewave Edition will run on the PS4 and Xbox One.

It goes without saying that most shooters are expected to run at 1080p and 60 frames per second, so will Payday 2: Crimewave Edition follow the norm?

“Resolution will be 1080p and frame rate will be as good as we can get it – we’re still in development and are currently performing tests to see how far we can take it,” Almir said to GamingBolt. “We’re trying to go as far we can. With every new platform, there are technical challenges that we need to address.”

It will be interesting to see whether the developers will be able to deliver 60 frames per second or whether they will opt for an unlocked frame rate approach. Regardless, Almir think it will be a smooth experience compared to the original. “We’re confident it’s going to be a smooth experience – heisters from the last generation will see the difference.”

Payday 2: Crimewave Edition releases this June for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Stay tuned for more updates regarding the game, right here on GamingBolt.
