Monster Hunter Rise – PS5 vs Xbox Series X/S – PC-Style Graphics Options! – DF Tech Review



An excellent Nintendo Switch game transitioned beautifully to PC and now – finally – we have versions for the rest of the consoles. In this video, we’re taking a look at the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series machines – but it’s not really the comparisons that are interesting, more the way that Capcom has allowed users to configure their own visual experience via a PC-style graphics menu. PS5 and Series X even get the ability to render the game at *beyond 4K* resolution!

Imagine getting this kind of performance & fidelity out of Dragons Dogma II! I hope Capcom & company can pull it off.
@YaaSalty...0_o April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
I wish more developers did this with their Graphics options kind of future proofs their games for Next Generation

While everyone is going back to World (UI is just too slow and clanky for me) I'm curious to see these Rise (way more streamlined) comparisons since I was on Switch when it first came out. My shiny new Series X will enjoy this Rise & Sunbreak now!
@neorobin1833 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Enjoying Rise on series S alot :D

9:05 - Switch vs PS5
@titus6573 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
The switch version is absolute garbage
@ZAIBYR April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Glad there's a default so you don't have to choose one or the other. Having options is great, but I feel like a lot of games have forced you to sacrifice one or the other since the PS4 Pro released and this whole trend started.
@kirkanos5447 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Hi... sorry my English is poor...
I see in the commentary "PS5 is better" but I see the same graphic.. my TV is blocked in 60fps.. I have PS5 and XBOX Serie X... in the default mode or graphic mode what is the best console? (Sorry for my English)
@blakeforster5466 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Played this on Switch when it originally launched, even finished Sunbreak. Did it all solo though cause my friends hated the 30fps compared to Worlds 60fps. Now with the PS5 version i get to play all the way through the game again, but this time with my girlfriend and best friend playing with me. I was very impressed with the Switch version overall but after playing it on PS5 i hope Capcom sticks to home consoles for MH, least till we get a more powerful Nintendo system haha.
@TU.GAMING April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
The loading time is great unlike past mh its great game😊
@fadyhany2007 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Is the ps5 120 fps ??
@AdamMerlin April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
What I dont think I'll ever understand is how the 60fps cap on graphics mode has 50-60 frames and the 120fps cap on graphics mode has 60-80 frames.. Are they the same exact settings on both?
@yikes6969 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
They really worked some magic to get it to run like it did on switch. Not saying it was perfect but the performance with all the fast paced action and effects was good and theyre seeing dividends now on more powerful consoles and pc.
@robertjif6337 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
man, world 2 with re engine on high end PC with high texture pack is gonna be insane, I can't wait
@Solkerate April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
60+ fps 4.8k 0-0
@TheCarloalberto95 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
More games needs to implement this type of customization!
@simondelavega1938 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
I'm just glad I can play rise on 60fps now. And I can finally chat with friends in a party
@fresco_dinero5155 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Can you guess do a short update video on a mix of settings.

On a 120hz display, I put the resolution on 100% and I turned the better textures on but most of everything else I turned off. It feels very smooth and still looks amazing especially with HDR but I have no clue if it’s running at a locked 120 or is it below 100. Seems very smooth so I would guess between 100-120fps while still maintaining a 4k image
@fobbles_ April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
God damn I can’t tell the difference except for shadows. Maybe because I’m on a phone
@NeroTP April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Clearly playing in PS5 graphics mode, just putting scale to 100% should be the best mode to play
@JustGRP April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Love how digital foundry fails to mention how bad the screen tearing is if your tv doesn't support VRR. The game looks extremely disgusting, trash worst than the switch version. Typical digital foundry fails to mention all the garbage w the game. Xbox series x version.
@Micah__ April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
My god even at its highest settings it still looks like a cyst covered armpit. “Who cares about graphics, it’s all about gameplay!” Yeah, well why can’t we just have both?
@davidludwig7501 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Monster Hunter rules. Can we get a Monster Hunter but with nothing but hunting Dinosaurs in a prehistoric setting on unreal engine 5? Would be sweet. A Monster Hunter World ps5 version would be sweet also.
@PressXGamingPS April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Never cease to amaze me. Played wild hearts today and man I couldn’t stay on it for long. Graphic & Performance is so bad.
@mathlfr April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Xbox series X here. Use graphics mode, maximise filters to your taster and drop resolution to 100%. No need for rendering more than native 4k.
@bobosborne1573 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
its like a super car body. with a mini engine lol/
@CheckeredFedora April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Great video! A lot of interesting options. Did any of you experience screen tearing on the Series S version? I'm getting it on all graphics settings.
@AdaaDK April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
I was very disapointed when i tryed this game on gamepass. Its waay too ching chong ching chong.... And notthing like I had expected. I dont like these asian cartoon grafix games. Horrible looking horrible game designs. And lip sync isnt Even english either +most talk gets cut out And only give me text. It feels like this should have been an asian release only. Not ready for western world imo.
@malazan6004 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Man if only Wild Hearts could have been so well optimised like this.
@pleasuretokill April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
This is a best case scenario win on every platform. The engine is the star of the show here for sure. Im playing on a 120hz TV with VRR and ALLM modes along with Dolby Vision on the XSX. VRR takes care of any drops and I have not seen a frame drop yet that was noticeable. Graphics and performance are phenomenal.

A friend I play with has an XSS as he doesnt game as much as I do and just wanted a current gen system to play on. I talked him into downloading this on Game Pass and he cant believe how good it looks and play either... whatever Capcom did with this engine, they did it right...
@ketxxx1 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
I don't think you can mention the Switch as something being compared to the PS/Xbox when there's nary a comparison screenshot or footage.
@VanTesla April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Hope the information for the last generation systems comes out still. Curious also about the PS4 version played on PS5 and what differences, advantages, and disadvantages it has. Also just curious how it plays on OG Xbox One and PS4.
@lenoirx April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
PS5 wins. This also proves that the PS5 has more power, and that the tflops in a machine don't matter.
@Perpetuousdreamer92 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Fantastic game and franchise and great port with an effective engine and great optimisation 😊
@SianaGearz April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
You should do something about the top end of your microphone when you edit the video. It sounds pretty grating!
@lucasrodriguez8957 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Does a display only capable of 1080p at 120hz, do that change the result in any ways, because of the lower resolution?
@JH-gd4qv April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
Why didn’t you show how framerate holds on default 120hz mode. I was thinking of trying to run it that way. I’m currently using a 2020 tlc r65 6 series which I run my Xbox series x at 1440/120hz when playing call of duty/halo/other shooters since my tv doesn’t do 4K/120. Sucks Microsoft Still won’t let us have hdr at 1440p/120hz mode. I’m planning to buy a lg oled next year so I’m rocking my tlc till then. 120hz mode is game changing for shooters
@tcgvsocg1458 April 20, 2024 - 9:38 am
so sad it doesnt keep the mh world graphic...so sad that "switch" too bad and push all video games graphics down
