The added frames will be in a later update
Redfallwill have options for either Quality or Performance on Xbox, but only one will be available at launch. Arkane confirms thatRedfallwill be launching with just the Quality option, and Performance mode will be arriving in an update after launch.
No date was specified in theannouncement, just that it would arrive through a game update sometime later. So for Xbox Series X|S owners, Quality mode will be the sole option. Here’s what you get on each platform with that:
No resolution targets were listed forRedfall‘s Performance mode, but it will be the 60 FPS setting, for those who like their frames.

The streets run red
For those who prefer the crispy 60 FPS over higher resolutions, this is a bit of a bummer. I usually opt for the Performance mode whenever possible, and knowing there will eventually be an option for it honestly makes me consider holding off for a while.
Redfalldoes look really fun, to be fair. I’ve enjoyed the general theme and idea of it, it’s looked solid invarious trailers, and I’m a pretty big fan of Arkane’s previous games. All of it seems set up for success.
YetRedfallis also launching into a highly competitive window for attention. It arrives just afterStar Wars Jedi: Survivorand just beforeThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It may hold the benefit of being a multiplayer experience, whereas those other games are solo adventures, but it’s still a stacked spring by any standard.
Hopefully Arkane can get this mode out the door fast. Having all the frames I can for vampire hunting will be helpful.Redfalllaunches on July 28, 2025 for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
