Take a look at this forest scene running on UE5 max settings on my system (no OC). Only 1440p and the frame rate is brutal. Sure, I can scale it to run better on my hardware and it will probably still look decent, but imagine trying to scale that to run on the much weaker console hardware. It is going to look and run like shit. The Matrix Awakens demo was already a disaster on consoles. It was blurry as fuk and couldn't even run at 30fps. This is why we need powerful hardware like the RTX 4090 to take advantage of the latest game engines. Advanced UE5 games are going to be shit on consoles. The mid-gen consoles can't come soon enough.
