While Slightly Mad Studios, the developer of the upcoming racing game Project Cars, was initially aiming for parity between the consoles, they have announced that the game will not achieve that goal. The PS4 version will run at 1080p, while the Xbox One version has been slightly downgraded to 900p. Both versions of Project Cars will run at 60 frames-per-second though, so framerate fans should enjoy the smooth racing action.
Two other versions of Project Cars are planned, one for Wii U and one for PC. The Wii U version’s technical info is not known at this time, with an official announcement planned for later. The PC version is known, and it’s rather interesting. Slightly Mad Studios claims that the PC version of Project Cars can run at 12K resolution, or 11520×2160. This setup is intended for multiple 4K monitors, set side by side to allow for greater peripheral vision. Of course, your machine has to be fairly powerful to run the game like this. To just run it normally, you can check the system requirements below:
