No analysis pits PC, Xbox and PS5 against each other, so PC is the only version with a demonstrable edge.
The available analysis compares the remake with the original game, not the three versions with each other, and it was captured on PC. The remake moves to Unreal Engine 5, reuses animations and cutscenes from the original, and gains mostly in detail, texturing and lighting.
Xbox and PS5 launched the same day as PC and share the same engine. The only thing separating them in the data we have is that the Xbox version is on Game Pass.
The remake undoes changes Sigma 2 introduced, starting with the censored blood from amputations. That applies to all three platforms.
There is no technical analysis comparing the PC, Xbox and PS5 versions with each other, so we cannot give resolutions or frame rates for any of them.
The best live offer for each version, every price with its format.
Resolution, modes and FPS come from the video analyses above. The rest is published by each platform's official store and by the game's technical sheet on PC. Where nobody publishes the figure we put a dash, not a guess.
