The Xbox Series X and the PS5 are very similar, as both offer high-end specifications. As a result, other factors like subscription services and exclusive titles might decide the fate of these consoles. However, the PS5 digital edition and the Xbox Series S have stark differences, even in their specifications. The Series S and the PS5 digital edition cost $299 and $399, respectively.
Following Capcom’s announcement, a lot of fans are skeptical of the Xbox Series S’s performance. Ray tracing, in simple words, makes light in video games behave like it does in actual life. It enhances realism in the games and DMC 5 fans would have loved it on their Series S.
Games from other developers like Ubisoft will support DirectX RayTracing on Microsoft’s cheaper next-gen console. Therefore, it was Capcom’s choice to not include the feature and not a technical shortcoming of the console itself.
