With Xonotic 0.8.2 having been released this past weekend and was the first update to this open-source game in more than one year, I was curious to put it through its benchmark paces.

The Xonotic 0.8.2 release focused on mostly game-play changes and assets rather than any big engine overhauls, but still makes for an interesting test case.





There are new maps and other game improvements for those enjoying this open-source first person shooter, but of course we're most interested in the benchmark numbers.

No real surprises performance-wise over Xonotic 0.8. But for those curious about some fresh benchmark results:

No major upsets, but more via this OpenBenchmarking.org result file for those interested.
