Rainbow Six Siege — PS5 & PS5 Pro performance

Technical analysis last updated

Performance overview

On PS4, Rainbow Six Siege operates at native 1080p with post-process anti-aliasing and temporal filtering. Standard multiplayer targets 60fps, experiencing drops into the 50-60fps range and mid-40s during heavy firefights and explosions. Terrorist Hunt is capped at 30fps on console due to complex enemy AI calculations, holding a solid 30fps during gameplay but suffering from reduced control responsiveness compared to multiplayer.
