Overview
- Sony confirmed the enhanced PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution is live in Resident Evil Requiem on PS5 Pro, targeting 4K-quality output at 60fps with ray tracing or 120fps without ray tracing.
- A March system software update will add an “Enhance PSSR Image Quality” setting, enabling the improved upscaler across existing PS5 Pro titles that already support PSSR.
- Digital Foundry’s early testing calls the update a major step forward, citing sharper detail and convincing 4K presentation at 60fps, with remaining RT noise tied to Capcom’s denoising rather than PSSR.
- Capcom says pairing the upgraded PSSR with an updated RE Engine boosts fine detail and character fidelity, including polygonal individual hair and beard strands that respond to motion and light.
- AMD’s Jack Huynh congratulated Sony and suggested the related advances would reach PC via FSR4 in the next few months.
