Capcom: DMC5SE supports ray tracing on Series X, not on Series S

That's a shame, but I don't really blame them considering their solution isn't really optimized for the hardware that much yet going off of the PS5/XSX resolutions with RT enabled.
I hope this won't be a constant thing throughout the generation, and that it's just a matter of the switch from XDK to GDK and a new hardware set without the ability to fully optimize, but it probably will. Still, if games run well throughout the generation I won't see a problem

This tweet makes it sound like the game will render at 4K with RT. That's quite the jump from 1080p on PS5.
The lack of RT on the Series S version is expected I guess.

They have four different video support modes included:
-Native 4K with RT on at 30fps
-Native 4k with RT off at 60fps
-1080p with RT on at 60fps
-1080p with RT off at 120fps
Oh, you would be surprised. I know I didn't, I also know this is just one game.
But yeah....I know quite a few thought otherwise.

not quite sure if this is what people on ERA Who have followed this more closely expected, but saw it pop up on twitter and thought it’d be of importance to some of y’all.

Oh thanks. I didnt understand the tweet. As a 2060 owner I know RT is expensive but damn at going from 4k to 1080p
And gross at the 30fps mode haha
It runs at 4K w/ RT on PS5 too. But they both run at 30 fps.
The majority of people buying the S probably won't know or care.
It's for great graphics at a great price, not the best at higher price.
Expected.

That's a nice set of options. For this particular game I'd probably go for the 1080 -> RT -> 60 mode. Maybe switch to the 4K 60 after a while to see the difference between RT/no RT.
I know they had to put it in there for folks that do care about visuals above all else, but yeaaaaaaaah, DMC at anything less than 60 is disgusting.
Oh yeah, I completely forget about the 4K 30fps RT mode. They didn't mention 4K RT framerate in this tweet so maybe it's the same on the Series X.
Not even for the 30FPS mode?
That's a bummer.
Edit: But I can't say it don't make sense or it will matter.

It begins. I was looking at the Series S today to possibly preorder, but if the hardware is this gimped, I might just have to look into getting a Series X.
if this is the same for both XSX and PS5, I guess why the tweet specific for Xbox? Just to share the details about Series S?
to let series S owners know that they won't have that feature.

I'm guessing that couldn't find a way to include a 60fps w/ raytracing mode on the Series S they didn't bother with it at all.
They still hadn't talked about the Series X version if I'm not mistaken.
Gears 5 has a 120 fps mode on the Series S, I won't put it past this game having one.
Not good, this could lead to devs not wanting to rely on ray tracing too much for next-gen exclusive games, because they also have to implement traditional lighting for Series S game versions, which would eliminate one of the big advantages of ray tracing (less dev resources needed).

Yeah but this game is already 1080p/120/no RT on XSX. Not gonna get the same on XSS.
As someone who preordered a Series S I'm a little worried here. I expected games down the line to have this stuff happen...but not a "remaster" of a 2019 game.
In all likelihood it's for optimization and ray tracing currently isn't working too well for the Series S.
Out of the five features they're adding to 5SE, one doesn't work on an entire console. Oof. 5SE is getting more and more monkey's paw the more we learn about it.
Uppercase M, tho? no.
