Control Resonant is reportedly scheduled to launch on Sept. 24, 2026. Pre-release technical findings report two graphics modes on Xbox Series X and one on Xbox Series S: Series X targets 60 FPS in Performance mode and 30 FPS in Quality mode, while Series S has a single 30-FPS mode.
Two modes on Xbox Series X, one on Series S
The reported figures distinguish the consoles by their available choices and targets. The resolutions below are approximate internal rendering resolutions; each uses image reconstruction.
| Platform and mode | Approx. internal resolution | Image reconstruction | Frame-rate target |
| Xbox Series X — Performance | 864p | Yes | 60 FPS |
| Xbox Series X — Quality | 1,260p | Yes | 30 FPS |
| Xbox Series S — single mode | 864p | Yes | 30 FPS |
Performance mode versus Quality mode
On Xbox Series X, Performance mode has the higher frame-rate target: 60 FPS at approximately 864p internally. Quality mode targets 30 FPS at approximately 1,260p internally. Both resolutions are reconstructed for display, so the figures describe the internal render rather than the final output resolution.
That makes the choice straightforward: Performance favors the higher frame-rate target, while Quality favors the higher internal-resolution target. Neither target guarantees a particular frame rate in every moment of play.
Xbox Series S has one graphics mode
The pre-release analysis reports one Xbox Series S mode, targeting 30 FPS at approximately 864p internal resolution with reconstruction. It does not offer the two-mode choice reported for Series X; its visual settings are described as broadly similar to Series X Performance mode.
What the reported targets mean for play
The technical comparison describes Xbox Series X as visually matching the standard PlayStation 5, with similar performance. It also notes image breakup in fine detail, distant shadow artifacts, and screen-space reflections that lose detail when objects are occluded on non-Pro consoles.
