Performance option for console versions?

I'd like to know if there will be a performance option for the console versions of EA Sports PGA TOUR, in which it would be possible to play the game at 60 FPS?

    We now have a definitive answer to the fps question, including some hope for improvement:


    What is the fps for EA SPORTS PGA TOUR?

    On PC, EA SPORTS PGA TOUR can run at 30 fps, 60 fps, or unlocked framerate. Consoles (Xbox X/S and PS 5) will run 30 fps. 

    We understand that some players have a strong visual preference for higher framerate in their video games and we’ve heard community feedback surrounding the fps of the game on console. As a result, we’re examining the ability to add it into the game in the future.

@Ultrasonic_77It just seems strange to delay a game a full year, put it on next-gen consoles only, and have it run capped at 30. This game must have some stellar demanding graphics to only run at 30 Hertz. Maybe it's all the lidar lasers and helicopters they use to count every blade of grass I'm not sure.

As I've said above I think one major factor is ray tracing. 

I wonder if there's any chance that the game physics really has advanced to the point that the last gen CPUs would have struggled?

@Ultrasonic_77 I agree, I'm just talking simply frames and resolution. Not sure how much ray tracing is going to impact a golf game, maybe water and sunlight. It still don't justify 30 frames. There is a ton of graphically demanding games that can run at 60 or above. Hopefully they can add that settings options and the graphics menu.

In the end though if the gameplay is good, multiplayer is good, it looks good, and runs well, that's all we can hope for at launch.
