Due to an exclusive agreement with Sony, the PS4 Pro has been front-and-center in all Red Dead Redemption 2 promotional materials, and the platform is getting timed-exclusive content at launch. That said, according to the tech heads at Digital Foundry, the Xbox One X is actually the best way to experience Rockstar’s latest open world.

Red Dead Redemption 2 runs at native 4K and a near-locked 30fps on Xbox One X. Meanwhile, the PS4 Pro version’s native resolution is only 1920×2160, upscaled to 4K using checkerboard rendering, and the game drops frames when in towns and other heavily-populated areas. Also, it seems RDR2 uses a temporal anti-aliasing method, which doesn’t scale well, slightly muddying the PS4 Pro image.
