Call of Duty Ghosts to Run in 720p for Xbox One and 1080p for PS4

Call of Duty: Ghosts will not run on full HD for the Xbox One according to an admission from Infinity Ward.

"Hey, been on the road last couple weeks so haven't had a chance to update, but wanted to confirm that for Xbox One we're 1080p upscaled from 720p. And, we're native 1080p on PS4. We optimized each console to hit 60 FPS and the game looks great on both. Still on the road, but glad to see the great reception to Extinction. Can't wait for next week's launch," tweeted Mark Rubin of Infinity Ward.

CoD will be in 720p for Xbox One, and 1080p for the PlayStation 4. According to the Verge this was done to ensure the game was able to run in 60 fps.

Being in 720p means the game will essentially have the same graphics as its 360 counterpart, albeit a little more updated visually.

One look into the future releases of next-gen consoles reveals that the Wii U has more true HD (1080p 60fps) games coming out than its competitors, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Cinemablend reports that the Wii U has Super Smash Bros. U, Bayonetta 2, Mario Kart 8, Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD, Monster Hunter 3, and Rayman Legends all coming out in 1920 x 1080p and 60 frames per second.

In comparison, the PS4 has Killzone: Shadow Fall, Flower, Resogun, and DriveClub, which may not reach 60fps. Xbox One will have Forza 5, Call of Duty: Ghosts, and Killer Instinct, but it will be in 1280 x 720.

The new console could only produce 900p graphics compared to the PS4's and Wii U's 1080p, according to Extremetech, an anonymous insider on NeoGAF, who correctly revealed Microsoft info in the past.

"Xbox One fully supports native 1080p output at 60 fps. It is up to individual developers to determine what resolution best fits their design goals. At launch, Xbox One will present all titles at 1080p- whether natively or upscaled," said a Microsoft representative to Extremetech.

It has already been proved that Xbox One's big game, Ryse, is in 900p. The representative commented no further on the manner.

Interestingly enough, an Xbox One representative went on Reddit and confirmed the 900p claims, but stated the models used were for stress testing, so they were not an indication of the final product.
