However, last year's PC version still has the real edge in this regard with support for arbitrary resolutions and additional hardware MSAA. Considering the target frame-rate, image quality is acceptable in both cases, though clearly PS4 has the advantage. Post-process anti-aliasing along the lines of FXAA does a decent job of smoothing out edges without overly blurring the image. Image quality is crisp on PS4 and although a bit blurrier, it's still relatively clean on Xbox One. The PS4 and Xbox One versions of Shadow Warrior operate at 1080p and 900p respectively. So how well do the console versions fares against the PC original? In its original PC form, one of the game's limitations was its inability to scale well across CPU cores, translating into performance issues with specific settings. All of these elements have been successfully translated onto console with minimal loss in quality. For Shadow Warrior, the team introduced a host of improvements, including completely dynamic lighting, parallax occlusion mapping (POM), and screen-space ambient occlusion (SSAO). Shadow Warrior is built on a unique, in-house graphics technology known as the Road Hog Engine, first used in Hard Reset on PC.

Can PS4 and Xbox One attain and sustain the target? Of course, hitting 60fps and delivering a consistent experience are two different things. With developer Flying Wild Hog announcing a target of 60 frames per second on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One earlier this year, it was clear this was an ambitious project. Shadow Warrior made a splash last year on PC with impressive visuals and kinetic action, but high system requirements left us wondering how well it would translate to console.
