The Xbox Series X was supposed to be the most powerful console of all time. A 12 teraflop monster that would wipe out the competition. Thus far we haven’t really seen that in action – from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, to Devil May Cry 5, to Dirt 5, numerous next-gen 3rd party games are actually running better on the PlayStation 5. More to the point, we’ve seen very few examples of games running dramatically better on the XSX than the PS5.

Why is this? Well, according to The Verge, Sony got PS5 dev kits out to studios far in advance of Microsoft. In fact, Microsoft only started to allow publishers to submit Xbox Series X/S games for certification back in June. Why were Microsoft so slow in getting tools to developers? It could have something to do with the company opting to include full RDNA 2 support in the XSX – in a recent interview Phil Spencer admitted manufacturing of the new console was pushed back as they waited for AMD’s new tech.
