The best version of Ready or Not is the PC one, and on console PS5 leads.
PC was the lead development platform and it shows: better lighting, SSR reflections and optimisation ahead of the console builds. An RTX 5060 Ti runs it maxed out at 4K with DLSS Performance and no frame generation, at around 120 FPS.
Among consoles PS5 wins. Both have quality and performance modes, and both lock 60 FPS in performance, but Series X lowers shadows and ambient occlusion: its quality mode shadows are the same as PS5 in performance. PS5 Pro adds nothing significant and sits at dynamic 1552p and 60 FPS.
On price the gap is wide: the PC key is 15.57 €, the Xbox key 28.87 € and the PS5 key 37.49 €. Account offers go below that — 5.88 € on PC and 7.80 € on Xbox — because they are not a purchase in your name.
The PC version was censored for the console launch, and the analysis calls that unfair.
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.

Xbox is the Series X column unless Series S is stated. Resolution, modes, FPS, VRR and download size come from the videos; HDR, ray tracing and PC features from the technical sheet and the official Xbox catalogue.
PC. It was the lead development platform, it has been out for over a year, and it shows better lighting and SSR reflections than any console version. On console, the best image is PS5.
Two on every version: quality and performance. Performance locks 60 FPS by giving up a little resolution and lowering level of detail, ambient occlusion and shadows.
Shadows and ambient occlusion. Series X sits below: its quality mode shadows are the same as PS5 in performance mode, and level of detail also lags. PS5 also holds a slightly higher average resolution in quality mode; in performance it flips because of those same cuts.
It adds no significant improvement over PS5 in this game. It sits at dynamic 1552p and 60 FPS.
On settings close to those of Series X. So close that the analysis suspects the weakest console was used as the lead platform for the Xbox build.
Yes. The analysis points out that the PC version was cut back for the console launch, dismemberments among it, and calls that unfair. It is still the technically better version.
An RTX 5060 Ti runs it maxed out at 4K with DLSS Performance and no frame generation, at around 120 FPS. We have no FPS measurements of our own for this game, so that is the only figure with a source behind it.
Neither. PCGamingWiki records no ray tracing and no HDR on the PC version, and the official Xbox catalogue does not declare HDR either. It does declare 4K and 60 FPS.
Yes. The Xbox catalogue flags cross-platform multiplayer and co-op, plus keyboard and mouse support on console.
The cheapest key is on PC, at 15.57 €. On Xbox it goes to 28.87 € and on PS5 to 37.49 €. Watch out for account offers, cheaper at 5.88 € on PC and 7.80 € on Xbox, because they are not a purchase in your name.
