Coming This Week to Digital Foundry (Week 7, 2025) (Patreon)

Well, hello there - Rich here with your regularly scheduled update on everything happening here at Digital Foundry. Not feeling great to be honest: looks like it's my turn to get a dose of the flu that is circulating at the moment, with my wife already losing her voice, Linneman-style! Still, the morning meeting occured as per the norm and the good news is that Will Judd is back from his China vacation! Tom's still away, this time on jury service! Let's hope he gets a good case eh?

Anyway, here's our agreed line-up of content this week, but I'm going to kick off by saying that with another Spider-Man 2 PC patch 'dropping', we've decided not to review the game. We'll take a look further in the week and maybe include something in Direct #201.

Rich (ie me) has been taking it a bit easy today but the automated benchmarking workflow is thankfully immune to human infirmity. I'm awaiting arrival of RTX 5070 Ti, but in the meantime, I'm completing benchmarking of the 1080p tier in preparation for an Arc B570 review. I still have 'eyes on' another Switch 2 GPU simulation piece.

John is our man on the upcoming Avowed review for Xbox Series consoles and PC. Alex will be helping him out a bit on mainstream PC performance.

Alex himself is completing out Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 PC review before moving on to the DLSS 4 transformer model super resolution review.

Oliver has just handed in a draft version of his Hogwarts Legacy PS5 Pro review before moving on to his next magnus opus: a 2025 update for 'Too Big For Steam Deck'?

Will returns to Eurogamer duties and will be helping me with the text versions of the B570 and RTX 5070 Ti reviews in amongst other Eurogamer articles.

We have heard all the stories about PS5 Pro VRR issues but thus far, we've not been able to replicate them. We will give it another go and see what we can see, but beyond that, do let me know of any other topics you may have for our perusal and consideration. Have a great week!
