After five years of development, Immortals of Aveum has landed, with the distinction of being the first non-Epic game to ship on Unreal Engine 5 using all of its next generation features. There's Nanite micro-geometry and ray-traced Lumen lighting, along with virtual shadow maps. Not only that, the developers are aiming for 60 frames per second exclusively, meaning there's no 30fps fidelity option.

As it stands, Immortals has rough edges on all three machines - but more so on Series S. The specular highlights on the city's gold decals break up easily. And even the detailing on our hand turns into pixellated noise any time we switch amulets. Ultimately, these spots don't flatter the work put into the game's otherwise on-point art direction. It's also worth noting the FSR 2 mode is adaptive, adjusting based on PS5 or Series X's output resolution.

All of this leverages Unreal Engine's 5's Niagara system to manipulate the same effect asset for different results. At peak action, the spells themselves are impressive, and it's a clear mark of a true current-gen title that it's all possible with 60fps in mind. The only odd point I've noticed is how god rays render at a low resolution on PS5, Series X and especially Series S. Certain effects also update at just 30fps - half refresh, which stands out when gameplay runs at 60.

If we focus just on the Xbox machines, almost every aspect of Immortals' visual design is dropped a setting for the 4TF machine. First up there's world detail. In the ruins area of chapter three, grass, rocks and entire trees are stripped out from the scene. Sometimes the contrast is huge. Series S pushes for 60fps - but to get there has involved a big hit, leaving it with much more barren-looking environments.
