Whereas the PS5 model of Armored Core 6 runs very effectively and largely at 60 FPS in efficiency mode, the PS4 Professional model run on a PS5 seems to present you a locked body price of 60 FPS, very similar to it did for Elden Ring.
As famous by Lance McDonald (@manfightdragon) and confirmed by IGN, the PS4 Professional model of Armored Core 6 will run with a locked framerate of 60 FPS on PS5 regardless of Namco Bandai saying it maxes out at 30 FPS at 1800p decision. Whereas it takes a small decision hit, these searching for the perfect efficiency could need to give this a shot.
Regardless of Bandai Namco telling us that the PlayStation 4 Professional construct of Armored Core 6 maxes out at 30fps at 1800p decision, identical to Elden Ring, should you boot up the PS4 Professional construct on a PlayStation 5 the framerate locks to 60fps. A lot smoother than the PlayStation 5 native construct. pic.twitter.com/diDRmDVQcA

As beforehand talked about, this was the case with Elden Ring as effectively, as we confirmed in our Elden Ring efficiency assessment.
“One good advantage of the PlayStation 5’s backwards compatibility mode is you too can play the PS4 model, or on this case the PS4 Professional model, which gives a decreased picture high quality of 3200×1800 (possible a reconstructed technique as per Sekiro) and a few graphical cutbacks,” IGN’s Michael Thompson wrote about Elden Ring. “The reward is a wonderfully locked 60fps readout from all examined sections. This gives the very best approach to play if efficiency is your important precedence, and that features the PC as a result of present patched model experiencing heavy extended stutter and decelerate when it occurs.”
McDonald went on to say that the PS5 model of Armored Core 6 runs “GREAT nearly on a regular basis, but it surely does have moments of slowdown that are not onerous to see in any respect. They largely occur in cutscenes but in addition when exploring areas with heavy climate results. (Sure, that is Framerate-priority mode).”

For extra, try our Armored Core 6 efficiency assessment for PS5 vs Xbox Collection X/S vs PS4 vs Steam Deck and out assessment.
In our Armored Core 6 assessment, we mentioned its “stellar customization choices feed into its glorious mecha fight, and the result’s difficult fight puzzles that stored my consideration during its 15-hour marketing campaign and past. It’s let down by a uninteresting story, however lands direct hits the place it counts.”
