Here are the specific details in regards to the improvements that have been made for the Assassin's Creed Origins PS5 Upgrade. A next gen upgrade is also coming in the future. It features HDR support with a dynamic 1600p resolution at 60fps.

This is a bump up from the existing 30fps experience that was present prior to an update from Ubisoft as of the 1.6.0 release. It should smoothly hit these targets with the extra power that is present. It is worth noting that the games will be given the full power of the Playstation 5 console to improve past experiences.

Those are the key details that are present. This game is upgraded on the platform, meaning it was specifically adjusted for the platform. This is a “next gen aware” sort of upgrade as opposed to a full reworking of the experience. A video showcasing this is found below, alongside a photo representing the game.


Description/Synopsis
This is a refresh for the Assassin’s Creed series that focuses more on RPG mechanics while still having the stealth mechanics of the past. This entry takes place in ancient Egypt where players will need to battle alongside the open world landscape of this desert region or even take a dive into the luscious Nile river that flows by.

Deal with natural creatures, unnatural mythological elements or also some generally bad folks that fill the bustling city landscapes. You’ll explore a vast world that’s quite large in scope and filled with many secrets to discover as you level up and gain new gear to use along the way. You can explore it however you choose, but leveling may be required to handle more dangerous threats along the way.

There will be puzzles, challenges and post-launch DLC that expand the experience further. This one large scale release in the series and it set the stage for the many games that followed it afterwards. A thrilling exploration into the location while also setting up a new modern scenario for those that care for that aspect of the series.

Hopefully you found these details helpful in regards to understanding how this game is running on the platform. Whether that’s in the boosted resolution (visual fidelity) that’s provided by the extra power of the console, or just generally the extra performance that assists with the Assassin's Creed Origins frame rate to keep it running smoothly.

Certainly great to see what these games can provide on the latest console platform that features full backwards compatible support and will see many new titles release over its lifespan. It should be exciting to see what’s to come for the consoles and how much gaming will change over this generation.

To summarize these were the details on if Assassin's Creed Origins can run on Playstation 5 console platforms. You can read a review of a related title below, or check out a game hub for further coverage as well. Don’t forget to check out the video content to see the game in action.
