Blizzard Entertainment has revealed that Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition runs in 1080p on PlayStation 4 and 900p on Xbox One. Senior producer for the console version, Julia Humphreys, confirmed the resolution details to Joystiq in an interview this week from E3.

Both versions of Diablo III run at 60fps. "We're prioritizing frame rate," Humphreys said about the difference in resolution. It was previously confirmed that Diablo III would run in 1080p on PS4, but the Xbox One resolution was unknown.

Resolution has been a hot topic of late, as the trend continues that multiplatform games often run in a higher resolution on PlayStation 4 than Xbox One. This disparity might not last forever, though, as Microsoft recently rolled out a new Xbox One software development kit update that boosts the console's GPU power. In the case of Bungie's Destiny, this update has allowed the studio to reach 1080p on Xbox One.

Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition launches August 19 for PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. The game contains the main Diablo III game and the Reaper of Souls expansion. As we learned at E3 this week, the PS4 version of the game includes infected from The Last of Us, as well as a special Shadow of the Colossus transmog set.

This is irrefutable proof that the Xbox One has a Weak CPU, 1.75GHz really ? , a 2009 quad core can run at 4ghz.

Still stronger than the 1.6 GHz CPU in the PS4.

<< LINK REMOVED >> Strange, it can do and play games like forza @ 1080p 60fps. So where is the "irrefutable" proof that it can't. Wait, selective arguments from fan boys or 'naive' commentators are utter garbage.

The original xbox, and 360 were great systems. This xbox one has been compromised several times since its development.


Even with the "added gpu power" on the xboxone (because of compromising kinect) they still can't reach 1080p for Diablo III!?! I find this to be disturbing. Even though we all know the xbox one is the weaker of the 2 new consoles, I find this here to be more about lazy dev's porting job, than the systems resources.


I mean look at the mess of the game when it launched on the PC, and there was no shortage of resources there!

Yes, but the game was never really all that optimized to begin with. Even on PC.


Although the Xbox one is definitely under-powered, I am stating that I don't think its all the xbox one's fault in this particular situation.

Kinect ruined the Bone. Developers could not use the resources it consumed. And so we get this.

We the consumers opposed Kinect from the start, We ask M$ to remove this Filth, and so, we get this in return.

<< LINK REMOVED >> Speak for yourself. Me, my friends and so many other Xbox users(see reddit) all welcome the Kinect, it's one of the things that makes my Xbox a lot more fun, innovative and different to my Playstation. I could sacrifice 100p for voice commands that make my console more fun and easier to use. Sorry you don't feel that way.

Lazy Development.


If Battlefield Hardline can run 1080P/60 FPS on Xbox One.


There is no reason this shouldn't.
