Elden Ring PS5 Specs and Five Playable Classes Revealed

Elden Ring Will Support Ray Tracing on Next-Gen Consoles, Five Playable Classes Revealed

November 8, 2021

Following a GameStop “leak” over the weekend, Bandai Namco Entertainment and FromSoftware have officially confirmed that Elden Ring will support 4K and 60 frames-per-second alongside ray tracing on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. A breakdown is as follows:

PS4

Maximum resolution: Up to 1920x1080P
Frame rate: Up to 30 FPS
HDR: Supported

PS4 Pro

Maximum resolution: Up to 3200x1800P
Frame rate: Up to 30 FPS
HDR: Supported

PS5

Maximum resolution: Up to 3840x2160P
Frame rate: Up to 60 FPS
HDR: Supported
Ray tracing (via patch): Supported

While PS5 and Xbox Series X specs are identical, only Xbox consoles will get full cross-generation compatibility in that Elden Ring‘s save data can be ported between both generations. On PlayStation platforms, you can transfer your data from the PS4 to PS5 should you start Elden Ring on last gen, but it won’t work the other way round. In simple words, once you start the game on the PS5 and decide to play it on the PS4, your saves won’t transfer. Additionally, once you port your PS4 save over to the PS5 and continue playing, you can’t take your progress back to the PS4. It’s all a one-way street.

Over on Twitter, the official Elden Ring account also revealed five playable classes ahead of the closed network test: Warrior, Enchanted Knight, Prophet, Champion, and Bloody Wolf.
