Highguard — PS5 & PS5 Pro performance

Technical analysis last updated

Performance overview

Highguard demonstrates a stable technical presentation on PlayStation platforms, with the preview specifically noting rock-solid performance when running on PS5 Pro. The game features crisp image quality alongside a colourful art style, though specific frame rate targets and resolution figures are not detailed in the coverage. A notable omission across console platforms is the lack of a field-of-view (FOV) slider.
