Mass Effect Legendary Edition seems like it's going to scale well across all consoles.

BioWare has detailed the framerate and resolution targets for Mass Effect Legendary Edition across all consoles. For starters, the game will offer two modes: one priorities visual quality and the other framerate.

The two modes will be available on PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X, as well as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S - though with varying targets. One thing worth highlighting is that Xbox Series X is currently the only console with support for up 120fps.

Although Xbox Series X is comparable in power to the PS5, Mass Effect Legendary Edition is likely not a native PS5 app, meaning it is limited to PS4 Pro targets. Xbox, of course, does not have this distinction, which allows games to deliver performance befitting of every console.

BioWare also confirmed that PC players will be able to run the game at up to 240fps, and tweak individual graphic settings to fine tune the output.

We've broken the two modes down into an easy-to-digest list below.

  • PS4 Pro: Up to 30fps at 4K.
