Overview
- The upgraded upscaler is included in a phased PS5 system software release that adds an Enhance PSSR Image Quality toggle for PS5 Pro, which can be switched off if unexpected visual effects appear.
- Sony lists a dozen supported titles at rollout, including Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill f, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Monster Hunter Wilds, Alan Wake 2, Control, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Nioh 3, and Rise of the Ronin.
- Crimson Desert will ship with PSSR 2 on March 19, with Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Cyberpunk 2077 updates planned for the coming weeks.
- Digital Foundry’s analysis cites cleaner edge detail and far less shimmering and flicker compared with the original PSSR, while noting isolated texture artifacts remain in some games.
- Sony says the reworked model draws on its AMD partnership under Project Amethyst and follows an initial deployment in Resident Evil Requiem before the wider firmware rollout.
