I suspect the 30 fps mode will be too unstable and low res for that to even be a consideration.

Lies of P for a recent title. It's incredibly rare outside of Sony 1st party.

There will be a 60fps performance mode, though.
Has this been announced or are you assuming?

Plague tale had a 40 fps mode.

Bummer. If I didnt have oled I would play at 30 fps for the graphics.

It was confirmed quite a while ago.

Maybe they aren't using FSR 2 on consoles. If they are I doubt many people will be able to handle the upscale from what will probably be 480p or lower on a 4k TV.It was confirmed quite a while ago.

A 2060 is supposed to get 1080p30 with DLSS Quality on low settings. A PS5 should be significantly more powerful than that. I'd be surprised if resolution dropped that low.

PS5 is not significantly more powerful than a 2060 though.
Doubling the framerate is going to take a lot more grunt than the headroom a PS5 has over a 2060. 1080p with DLSS quality is slightly below 720p. 480p sounds about right for 60 fps.
PS5 is usually compared to a 2070S on digital foundry, and the Alan Wake 2 spec is a 2060. That's what, 30-40% difference? 480p is half the pixels of 720p. A 2060 might be getting close to 60 fps just by dropping to 480p, depending on how much of the performance is hindered by post processing that's done after upscale.
I'm really curious to see where the game ends up. Upscale from 480p to 4k would be wild. Immortals of Aveum is 720p upscaled. I think Series S might be close to 480p in that game.

This is where the 2070 Super lands.
Ports of PS5 exclusives are where we normally see a requirement a 2070 Super (or higher) to match what PS5 does, but PS5 isn't at that level in multiplatform games.
You have to factor in the variable clock speeds too which will become more of a 'thing' when games start getting more demanding.
Yah, so the 2070 Super is about 30% faster. 100/78 = 1.28. Throw in low-level access, platform specific settings, platform specific optimizations and you're probably a little more than that.
One thing I hope is that the consoles don't have settings that are lower than low on pc. Any settings that are available on console should be available on pc if it allows it to scale to lower hardware.
FSR2 ultra-performance is 720p->4k, so I have a hard time expecting any mode is going to be less than that. Maybe performance mode won't be locked 60. Super curious.

Didn't watch the other video because I didn't really need to s don't know how well it covered everything, but here is a written article covering the control awe dlc and it's connections to alan wake. It is obviously full of spoilers so if you plan on playing it maybe don't read this.
