Destiny 2 will under no circumstances work at 60 FPS on the PlayStation 4 Pro and on the Xbox One X, because the processor, of Jaguar architecture, does not support that FPS rate with a 4K resolution.

Before introducing Microsoft's Xbox One X we were already clear about it and after seeing that the processor of this console was of Jaguar architecture, said architecture quite obsolete, we were already more than clear that 4K @ 60 FPS was pure science fiction. Bungie, who has developed the Destiny 2 game, has already officially said that neither the Play Station 4 Pro nor the Xbox One X will move their game to 60 FPS, saying they will move it to 30 FPS and thank you.

The reason is more than clear, the hardware used. An AMD Jaguar architecture processor is impossible to keep up with the FPS rate. For the PlayStation 4 Pro there was no choice but to use Jaguar, but Microsoft has opted to use Jaguar on the Xbox One X instead of Zen cores, which are based on Ryzen processors, which is a very serious flaw. In this regard, Mark Noseworth, Executive Producer of Destiny 2, during an interview in the EDGE medium, has highlighted that what limits the consoles is the Jaguar processor. Not only that, it makes it clear that if we want a high FPS rate, that we are going to run Destiny 2 on a real gaming platform, or what is the same, a computer.

“This is the simulation of the world of Destiny. Thirty AIs at the same time, wide open spaces, six players, sometimes with vehicles, and dropships coming in, that's where we're using the CPU. "

Could we have made Destiny hit 60 FPS? Yes, but the space would be smaller, it would be less cooperative, and there would be fewer monsters to shoot at. That is not the game we want to play. First of all, we are trying to make an amazing action game. We do not feel that we have been limited by the choices we have made about world simulation versus frame rate, in fact we believe that we are offering the player something that they cannot have elsewhere due to the choices we are making. ”.

But if frame rate is something that is really important to you, now there is a platform where you can spend as much money as you want, to go as fast as you want, the PC.
