Overview
- Bethesda’s new trailer on Friday outlines PlayStation 5 features and sets Tuesday, April 7 as the release date.
- On PS5 Pro, players can choose Pro Visual for a 4K presentation near 30 frames per second or Pro Performance that targets 60 FPS using Sony’s PSSR upscaling tech.
- DualSense integration includes adaptive triggers for weapon feel, haptic feedback, a lightbar that reflects health and ship status, audio logs through the controller speaker, and mapped touchpad shortcuts for POV, map, scanner, and key menus.
- A Performance Mode will be available from day one on PS5, a change from the game’s initial Xbox release that launched at 30 FPS before a later patch raised frame rates.
- The PS5 launch bundles the Free Lanes update, which expands in-system flight and core systems, and the Terran Armada story DLC priced at $9.99 that adds new missions and a companion.
