Differences Between PS4 and PS5 Versions

Comparison Video

Loading Times Are Noticeably Different

When comparing the two consoles, the most noticeable difference is their loading times. Whether it be starting the game from the title screen or taking a trip on a taxi, there is a difference of at least 16 seconds between the PS5 and the PS4 HDD. Even when compared to a PS4 with an SSD, the PS5 loads faster by 10 seconds.

Frame Rate Difference

As seen in the video above, there is also a difference in their frame rate. Considering that this is a game that uses an RPG style of combat, it should be fine even when played on a PS4.

The Amount of People in the City is Different

Another noticable difference is the amount of people you can see in the city. On the PS4, there are almost no people wandering around though there are some aspects of the game's graphics that have improved.

Which Version Should I Choose?

PS5 Provides a Smoother Experience

From the comparison video above, the loading times are vastly different which generally makes players gravitate towards the PS5 more. While the PS4 does a good job in keeping up with graphics, there are still many aspects of the game that make playing on the PS4 hard to recommend.

PS4 Version Is Fine if You Can Bear the Loading Times

When it comes to graphics, the PS4 does a fine job and the differences aren't too bad. If you don't really care about not seeing many people around the city, then you're fine playing on this previous generation console.
