@kmtrain83 perfect solution. you got it - PSSR is just for hairs. Every game without hairs won’t benefit from this upscaler. Ps5 pro is still a scam!

@OldGamer999 Same just upgraded recently to a 65 inch Tv. Also got an Atmos Soundsystem. Can’t wait for GTA.

@GhostOfSparta82K as already said, the upscaler has barely anything to do with framerates.

@nomither6 you are probably one of these PC guys owning a lower end PC that’s below the base ps5 and spends his leisure time online to flex against consoles xD

@badbob001 disabling it wouldn’t make sense because devs using these upscalers in their games. It’s the same as you would demand for an FSR toggle in the base ps5 games.
It’s not that easy as you might think.

@Th3solution I got the joke but it doesn’t really fit here

@nomither6 these Hardware comments are so dumb all the time. Ps6 is than what a ps5 should have been in your opinion?
Not every game running in 4K/120 then and then it’s again a disappointing? Bro come on.

Also curious to see how Jedi Survivor looks with the new PSSR.
And how PSSR will now compare to UE5s own upscaling. So far this was most often much better as PSSR in these games - Hellblade 2 as the only exception. Can’t wait for all these comparisons by DF and others.

@Scottyy the framerate itself isn’t that much related to an upscaler like PSSR. There is no frame generation part of this upscaler.
An upscaler gives you room to let your game render with a lower internet resolution (1080p or a little bit lower) and save on additional costs for anti aliasing. The upscaler itself needs of course some processing power as well but not as much as a native 4K rendering.
With saving these performance costs it gives the devs more room for higher framerate and more details.

@Angelus3K sadly it’s not there in the beta. I hope it will be accessible in one of the next beta updates. Would love to try this out as soon as possible.

@Rich33 yes, with the toggle you can apply PSSR 2 to all existing PSSR titles. But still some devs might will fuehrer update their games to apply some changes to their games to let them run better with the new PSSR.

@Rich33 exactly this!
Still curious which older games might get an additional patch.

In the current system software beta the toggle isn’t included, sadly

@LiamCroft it’s already used in the new resident evil. The toggle to activate it in older PSSR games will be added with a system software update on march.
There is currently a beta firmware test for the ps5 (pro) but the toggle isn’t included as it seems.

@cainhurst94 same thing here that we already are at a pretty good visual quality for games. These more in depth features of the pro console aren’t that easy to show and most often not so interesting for the average gamer, which is also ok in my opinion.

@ChikaBambus so true but honestly even ghost of Yotei was pretty amazing on the RT Pro mode. Also 1080p native upscaled to 4K.

@Jackthelad93 😅😅 at least might save you some money.

@BaldB3lper78 just look at the hair and might give it a look an a bigger screen and not only your smartphone.

@Th3solution lol Bro, total misunderstanding of the whole topic
PSSR has nothing to do with physics and the Horizon games not even using PSSR.

Absolutely amazing. Can’t wait to try it out with Alan Wake 2, SW Outlaws and GT7.
Also curious about which older games might get an additional update/patch.

@Shinnok789 DS2 Port was on development for months. Has not really any indication for their strategy shift for 2026 and later.

Same articles over and over again, isn’t is like this since a couple of months after its release? Sony more or less dropped its first party support a while ago while we still get some nice indie games like Aces of Thunder.
VR is still niche and will still stay there in this generation of consoles.

@graymamba understand
Hopefully it’s coming at some point.

@Blacknun would agree. An additional story dlc would have been nice but at least they added a lot of additional missions that you can play with bots or friends (or both mixed).

@graymamba the port was pretty trashy. It’s a shame that it’s Xbox console exclusive so far but it’s really not a huge miss in it‘s quality.

Great Game. Having a lot of fun with a friend in the coop story mode and the additional missions.
The new tech marine class covers half of the screen with the gadgets 😅

@Boxmonkey 😅😅

One of the most substantial pro upgrades so far

Sounds good to me. It was an overload on the games before.
Having high hopes for this Batman game. Hopefully it’s not too childish and goofy in its humour the whole time.

Forbidden west on ps5 pro is most likely the game with the best image quality on consoles.

@HRdepartment this!!

@Art_Vandelay that’s exactly that I was meaning. All sounding great but this update won’t bring magically all these features to the ps5 pro. It’s a nice hardware but still nothing groundbreaking. PSSR 2 will be (hopefully) in this form like FSR4. These extended features as listed in the article are more likely for a possible ps6.

@FamilyGuyFAN44 I hope so but again I wouldn’t like to keep expectations too high. Not every single game will be perfect after this update. Just seeing a huge hype meanwhile online and if there are any issues, and there will be some, the same people will again fall into a huge outrage about how bad everything is. So let’s keep calm and let’s see what will PSSR 2 bring for us.

@FamilyGuyFAN44 we‘ll see but I have the feeling that this hypes again too much on social media and a lot of people will be highly disappointed at the end.
Let’s keep expectations in a realistic way.

@FamilyGuyFAN44 These patent documents were send over most often years before. You don’t do this a couple of weeks before the launch of a feature. Furthermore Frame gen won’t be part of this ps5 pro update. Believe me I’m waiting for this update as well but it won’t bring any magic to the pro console.

Honestly this patent will have barely to do with the ps5 pro implementation. This is for the ps6.

Thanks Phil for crashing this whole Xbox thing. Sony loves you. Sad if I remember the times of the Xbox 360.

@Chaotic_Goat you need to select the ps5 version. When did you buy the ps4 version?
Digital or disc?

I don’t really care. I’m not in the age anymore with the need to play or to have everything from the first day. There are so many other activities and 48 hrs isn’t an kind of a deal.

Secret update that includes the PSSR 2 stuff because we will get patches for the first games really shortly after the announcement during the state of play.
A man can dream

It has become a legendary game after all these updates.

@Yaycandy yes, hopefully. Also with the announcement for updates of some of the Sony first party titles.

PSSR Update please with updates for the Insomniac and Naughty Dog Games!

Hollow Knight
Ps4 version: 10 Gb
Ps5 Version: 1,23 Gb

@ButterySmooth30FPS Internet without complaining wouldn’t be the Internet.
People could get 500$ on top from team cherry and they would complain why it’s not more and probably not paid out in cash/bitcoin/apples or whatever.
All the time we see the hustle over technical specs, now there is a game with 120 fps… ahh it’s not needed in such a game… oh my.

@mvhess true no huge improvements expected but why not?
It was a base ps4 version, no ps4 pro enhancements, so I would expect native 4K with 60 or even more frames. It’s not bad at all.
I see no point to complain about a free update for an older game.

Awful. I like the Horizon games, even the one from Lego but I will easily pass on this one.

@Oram77 people on social media telling you a lot these days, most of this stuff Kandinsky complete bs.

Loved that game. It has such a beautiful artstyle. Sure it’s again a bit repetitive and the story could me more intense but I had so much fun playing this game. Highly looking forward to new games of this franchise.

@Danloaded so true
