- Control Update Confirmed To Significantly Improve PS4 Performance
- Control Update Version 1.03
Control seriously suffered from performance issues on all platforms, but the situation was particularly bad on the base Xbox One and PS4, where the game could dip as low 10 frames per second. Recently, we heard that Control Post-Launch Roadmap Unveiled, New Mode Plus Expansions Coming In 2020.
Earlier this week Remedy dropped a new patch, which promised to improve performance on consoles, but did it really make that much of a difference?
According to a new analysis by the tech heads at Digital Foundry, it seems the answer is yes. If you’ve around 15 minutes to spare, you can check out the full video, below.

Meanwhile, Control version 1.03, has only been released for PS4, but that was the platform hit hardest by performance issues, so we can probably assume any improvements on Sony’s platform will also carry over to Xbox One and PC when they get the patch.
Following the update, Control is now much more consistent on PS4 Pro, with the game now maintaining a mostly-consistent 30fps with occasional dips into the mid-20s. The base PS4 still suffers from frequent dips, but they’re not as severe for the most part the framerate only drops to the mid-to-low 20s, not all the way down to 10fps like before.
