Assassin's Creed Shadows PS5 Pro details have been revealed and the biggest difference appears to be ray tracing

• Performance modes for Assassin's Creed Shadows on PS5 Pro have been confirmed
• Expect Performance, Fidelity and Balanced modes
• On PS5 Pro, 'extended' ray tracing is being offered for two modes

Ubisoft has detailed its performance modes for Assassin's Creed Shadows on PS5 Pro. It's all about what you'd expect for the upgraded hardware, with 'extended' ray tracing being the main draw.

As confirmed by an official PlayStation Blog post, Assassin's Creed Shadows will feature three separate performance modes on both PS5 and PS5 Pro: Performance, Fidelity, and Balanced.

On both consoles, these performance modes are largely identical. All target an upscaled 2160p (4K) resolution. In terms of frame rates, you're getting a targeted 60fps in Performance mode, 30fps in Fidelity mode, and 40fps in Balanced mode (designed for displays that support variable refresh rate and HDMI 2.1).
