PS5: performance issues and screen tearing
As said, the game runs extremely bad on my PS5, especially the screen tearing is a big issue. Is the day one patch already out? Or is this the state we are supposed to play this game?

Summarize your bug Frame rate issues on performance mode
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Playing on PS5 digital edition while performance mode is on, especially in the first and the second level in almost all areas
What happens when the bug occurs? The frame rate drops drastically especially when there is a group of enemies or too many things are happening on screen
What do you expect to see? A stable 60 frames per second as described
The frame rate drops drastically especially when there is a group of enemies or too many things are happening on screen, it is never a stable 60 frames per second and not even close, it almost drops to the 30’s in some areas.
Edit: Newest update from my side, Patch 5, 6 and 6.5 didn't fix the issue, after downloading each of them I replayed the game from the beginning on each patch to test the performance and it is still the same, very unstable and low frame rates in a lot of levels on the performance mode with a lot of screen tearing, I bought this game on the day of the release for $70 and still till now 4+ months later not fixed, unbelievable EA, this is the last time I am buying any games from EA.
- @realgamerrev Same here. I'm on PS5 and on "Performance Mode." Frame rates are horrendous in many places, especially on Koboh, in all the open areas. I'm also seeing tons of screen tearing and texture pop-in throughout the environment.
This is pretty unacceptable. Patch 1.03 didn’t fix the issue or fixed the frame rate, it made it even worse!
I've had the exact same issue too, during the Prologue and opening mission everything was smooth and 60FPS but as soon as the first boss encounter in Coruscant happened, frames dropped like crazy during cutscenes and second half of the fight and during the end custscene of the boss fight the frames dropped again making the cutscene lag and skip about a second of it.
Even when reaching the next planet or every cutscene after that boss, frames drop as soon as soon as another cutscene happens or when there's too much going on or whenever I exit buildings
Very low frame rate, choppy when turning the camera and screen tearing on top of that. Not at all what I expected when shelling out over £60 for a game. Never again am I going to be naive enough to buy a game on release
I downloaded patch 4 around an hour ago and played the game from the beginning after installing it to see if there is any performance improvements, unfortunately on the performance mode it still has the exact same issues, the frame rate drops drastically at the same areas as before, especially near and inside the yacht during the first level and in Koboh in a lot of different areas, screen tearing is still there as well, unfortunately that means we will have to wait for the next patch if you like playing it on performance mode.

There is a very slight improvement but definitely the game is still not smooth on performance mode and there is still a lot of frame drops, stuttering, and screen tearing especially in the intro level and the 2nd planet Koboh.
so unfortunately I still have to wait for the next patch as the game is not enjoyable at all in this state.
it is so frustrating that I paid $70 for this game on the release day and it’s almost a month now since the release and I still can’t play the game.
Could not agree more. The game just feel unplayable on the PS5 (and the Xbox for that matter). Game could benefit from VRR/120HZ support in combination with an 40 FPS mode without RT. But there is no communication about any of these option whatsoever.
You see amazing games like Horizon Forbidden West and then games like this and it's impossible to understand how poorly developed it is. The game looks awful and is unplayable. I would like to know how to make a legal complaint to Electronics Arts for being scammers. We are running the game on the latest Sony console, it's crazy that it works so badly!
