Empire of the Ants' Creepy-Crawlies Will Move at 60fps on PS5 Pro | Push Square
Empire of the Ants is a real-time strategy game aiming for photorealism, and it’s one we had mixed thoughts about in our PS5 review.
“The presentation is gorgeous and it's enjoyable thinking about the smaller creatures in our world differently, but [the game] tries to be too much at once,” we wrote. “The multiplayer is fun for a time, but lacks the depth seasoned strategy players want. A focus on either the story or RTS would have helped a lot.”
Jack of all trades, master of none
Nevertheless, it’ll play best on Sony’s supercharged PS5 Pro system, as an interview with Gaming Bolt reveals the release will run at 60fps. On the standard PS5 console, the title will be 30fps. Both versions will upscale to native 4K from a lower internal resolution, although it’s probably safe to assume PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) will provide better image quality on the upgraded console.
As a strategy game, this isn’t an experience that necessarily needs high frame rates, but 60fps will always look and feel better than 30fps, so it’s a nice upgrade to have. Are you ant-icipating this game on Sony’s new hardware at all? Crawl into the comments section below and let us know.
