Persona 3 and 4 support 120fps on Xbox but not PlayStation

Back in October 2022 we reported that the remasters of Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden would not be native PlayStation 5 ports, but would instead run PS4 code through backwards compatibility. Interestingly, the Xbox was announced to be getting native Series X|S ports, and while we previously did not know whether the two versions would differ, it has now been confirmed that Persona 3 and 4 will run at 120fps on Xbox – but not PlayStation.

Ahead of the release of Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden, reviews have now gone live, with The Mako Reactor comparing the PlayStation and Xbox versions – revealing that the latter’s port is quite significantly superior.

Due to it being a native Xbox Series X|S port, Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden are both able to run at a silky smooth 120fps, with the PlayStation version limited to 60fps. 

Furthermore, though no detailed pixel counting has occurred yet, it seems as though the PlayStation version runs at a lower resolution also when compared to the Series X.

Both these drawbacks would have undoubtedly been fixed had there been a native PS5 version and so it is confusing to see ATLUS choosing not to release one. Hopefully a PS5 SKU is introduced at some point in the future.
