In fact, at its worst, we noted PS5 delivering a 15 per cent performance advantage over its Microsoft equivalent in identical scenarios.

It's also worth noting the issue goes away completely when Variable Refresh Rate is turned on, a feature the PS5 can't support (but the XSX does) which is why Valhalla doesn't offer it to either console:
However, we tested Valhalla with VRR enabled on an LG CX display and the tearing is gone, and the presentation remains smooth: the console is fully in command of when the screen delivers a new frame and it's a game-changer, especially for this title. The omission of VRR on PlayStation 5 is a real disappointment, not just here in Valhalla, but also in other games like Dirt 5.

So basically the PS5 is holding the XSX back, and in this instance (the article says DMCV actually runs better on the XSX) the lack of a necessary modern feature causes issues on one console and not the other.
