'The Last Guardian' latest news: low frame rate drops, performance issues and other problems seen before launch

"The Last Guardian" is one of the most talked about video games for PlayStation 4 (PS4) and PS4 Pro due to its promising gameplay, interesting storyline and new characters to play. The title has been undeveloped for almost a decade and fans have been expecting highly of it.

However, fans reportedly noticed that the "The Last Guardian" has performance issues, which tempered the excitement they have for the game. The title was initially expected to be released in 2011 for PS3, but the title never came out.

This has left the enthusiasts frustrated over the game, but their hopes did not waver still. "The Last Guardian" may have suffered long delays, but it promises an excellent gameplay that should still be anticipated. The people behind the game reportedly had difficulties transitioning the game from the supposed PS3 platform to PS4.

According to WCCFTech, "The Last Guardian" development progress is expected to run smoothly with the PS4 console, but players noticed otherwise. This was reflected on Eurogamer's Digital Foundry frame-rate test, showing that the title displayed frame rate drops, seen on both PS4 and PS4 Pro.

The result of the test shows that on the PS4 console, the frame rate drops of "The Last Guardian" dipped to a low 20fps, but its performance apparently improved a little with PS4 Pro in 4K mode. However, the framerates drops are still low at 27fps.

"The Last Guardian" players can make the most out of the game by running it on 1,080 for the PS4 Pro console. The framerates at this option is seen at 30fps.

The title is up for release on PS4 tomorrow and the news about its performance issues may affect its market performance. Considering the fact that it took long years to develop the game, the people behind the game may need to act fast before "The Last Guardian" receives bad reviews from the players.
