During a recent interview with the chief producer, Slava Lukyanenka, the subject of the Xbox Series S was raised, and according to his words, the game is currently running at 25 FPS on the Series S. Xbox series X will offer two performance modes, quality and performance.


WebSite: “I think the Xbox Series S is the most difficult platform to optimize, because it's weaker than the others.”

Slava Lukyanenka: “In our case, it's quite feasible. On Xbox Series X, we have two modes available. One is Performance Mode, where the game runs at 60 FPS and with slightly different graphics than Quality Mode, which looks amazing with all the reflections and textures in high resolution, but runs at 30 FPS. We're trying to achieve a similar experience on Xbox Series S by combining these two approaches.”

Website:
“Does this mean that the game will run at 30 FPS on Xbox Series S with the same settings as the 60 FPS mode on Xbox Series X?”

Slava Lukyanenka: “Not yet. So far, we're running at around 25 FPS on Xbox Series S, but we still have room to optimize.”

Not surprising, it's an UE5 game. It's an heavy engine, especially the more you use some of the graphical features on offer.
I like the transparency from the Stalker team, and wish them good fortune on the launch. They've had a rough time(an understatement).

Microsoft should Advertise the Series S under the banner of the Radiation edition.

-Experience authentic gameplay like you're suffering from radiation sickness, "Play the game at a semi-fluid 20-25 fps"
-Toxic Green edition console.
-Rusted controller with batteries that need replacing every 30 minutes,

Although I want give these devs some slack. Jim Ryan was completely right about the S.
