According to Digital Foundry‘s comparisons of the next-gen and PC versions, the PlayStation 4 version runs in 900p while the Xbox One version runs in 720p. The PC version is shown running at ultra settings in 1080p.
“There’s no doubt resolution is a big differentiator when it comes to image quality, with the PC untouchable here on its ultra settings,” the site reports. “The PS4 version runs at 1600×900, while the Xbox One’s lower 720p resolution brings out the most aliasing.”
