Since its release, Scorn has sparked widespread interest by showing how its visuals scale across PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and Steam Deck. A detailed video examines the frame rates each platform delivers and calls out key visual distinctions such as textures, lighting, resolution, load times, field of view, post-processing effects, shadows, and anisotropic filtering, providing viewers with a clear sense of how the game experiences differ from system to system.
The video breaks down how Scorn looks and performs on four setups: PC, Steam Deck, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. Viewers can observe the interaction between texture detail, lighting quality, resolution, and the overall image quality on each platform, helping players decide where to play based on preferred visual fidelity and smoothness.
Here are the tested modes and configurations:
- Steam Deck – 800p at 40 FPS with maximum graphics settings (file size around 28.78 GB);
- Xbox Series S – 1080p at 60 FPS (about 18.60 GB);
- Xbox Series X – 2160p at 60 FPS (about 18.60 GB);
- PC – 2160p with maximum graphics settings (about 28.78 GB).
What conclusions emerged from the testing process?
- On Steam Deck, Scorn runs at the highest settings but the lower resolution can blur some fine details, especially in fast-paced or highly detailed scenes.
- Support for NVIDIA DLSS is in development, offering enhanced anti-aliasing through deep-learning techniques, though it is not available yet in the tested builds.
- On Xbox Series S, there is a noticeable drop in detail and slightly less refined texture filtering compared to higher-end machines.
- Xbox Series X delivers visuals that are very close to PC with high settings, preserving detail and texture fidelity across most sequences.
- The RTX 30-series family is capable of running the game at high settings with solid performance, according to the testing data.
When examining frame rates across different GPUs, a representative scene illustrates the range well:
- RTX 3050 – roughly 60 FPS at 1440p;
- RTX 3060 Ti – about 60 FPS at 2160p;
- RTX 3070 Ti – around 80 FPS at 2160p;
- RTX 3080 – near 90 FPS at 2160p;
- RTX 4090 – around 200 FPS, with the resolution not specified but likely 2160p.
On Steam Deck, frame pacing showed some variability, occasionally dipping from the target 40–60 FPS range depending on the scene, with occasional drops toward the low 20s during particularly demanding moments.
