PlayStation 6 and Xbox Series Z Refresh Rate Support: Everything Gamers Need to Know in 2026
The PlayStation 6 and Xbox Series Z, expected in 2026, will likely push for 120Hz gaming as a standard, but hitting 144Hz consistently will be difficult. HDMI 2.1a bandwidth issues and the need for robust developer optimization remain key challenges for achieving higher refresh rates and a smooth gaming experience. Gamers should prioritize displays with HDMI 2.1 and VRR support when preparing for the next generation.
