Battlefield Hardline Runs at 900p on PS4, 720p on Xbox One
Visceral Games has confirmed that Battlefield Hardline will run at 90op on PS4 and 720p on Xbox One. It’s understood that neither version is 1080p because the developer wanted to hit 60fps.

There is of course some debate about how much difference 1080p actually makes. Speaking to MCV Rich Leadbetter from Digital Foundry said: “The success of titles like Watch Dogs and Battlefield 4 on console demonstrates that 1080p isn’t essential for a best-selling title.”
Battlefield Hardline launches March 19.

Hi all, I'm Dan 'Nailz' Naylor, News Editor for the site (and I've just realised there's a pleasing alliteration to that). Almost all the news posts you see on the site are either by me or written because I say so, and we try to make them a little more interesting than a regurgitated press release so I hope you think we're succeeding.
Normally I'll be sinking my time into the latest RPG, but I'll play almost anything, with racing games a particular favourite. Owner of a Wii U, I have no regrets purchasing the console, though Smash Bros. hasn't left the disc tray since Christmas.
You can find me on Twitter and PSN as MacShanks, and feel free to hit me up if you have any questions, queries or feedback!
