Support NeoGAF

[HeisenbergFX4]

I am surprised to not see Silent Hill 2 on that list. I thought that all new PS5 releases in the run up to the launch had to have support for the Pro according to Sony?

I am expecting the game to get better RT support to match the PC version but I guess until that patch arrives the Pro's Boost mode will at least offer a stable and locked 30 fps in the Quality mode. I am not expecting it to lock to 60 fps for the Performance mode though without a patch and even with a patch I don't think it'll happen but if the game can hold 48-60 fps then at least VRR should make the experience smoother.

I bet we get a pretty large dump of games added to pro enhanced in the next couple of weeks leading up to launch

Stage 3 is required for all 2025 games, stage 4 is optional

Are you just aggregating info from the public domain or do you have first hand knowledge?

Game released in 2021 will run almost the same on Pro as on basic PS5 sans small boost from overclocking if turned on
Game released in 2025 will run significantly better on DRS/fps front as it will utilize better GPU

There are 4 stages on Pro transition:
1. Full compatibility - performance of Pro is the same as performance of basic model. It a base scenario for 2021 game
2. Boost mode - it's a base model with overclocked CPU/GPU. It'll give some performance boost, but not that much. This mode was manual on PS4 Pro with disclaimer that there might be issues (and there were, seldomly, that you had to turn it off)
3. Native Pro mode - it's unlocking extra CU on Pro, same as switching on better GPU, games will fully utilize extra power (PS dont switch to this mode automatically all older game as it could bring a lot of issues), but no extra features as they require explicit implementing
4. Enhanced Pro mode - devs implements features not present on basic model into game, like CBR on Ps4Pro and PSSR on PS5Pro

Stage 3 is required for all 2025 games, stage 4 is optional

All great, but mode 2 and mode 3 should be the same.

PS5 Pro GPU clock is basically the same as the base model based on the TF numbers we have.

33.5 TF = 2.18 Ghz minimum with a maximum possibile of 2.35 Ghz

Base PS5 = 2.23 Ghz

So boost mode has to enable the 60 CU to actually work

The GPU clock difference is insignificant

 

[SkyHighTrees]

Honestly. I`m really hopeful the GT7 support is more thorough.

I want improvements to the no ray-tracing mode... have better LOD for tracks and cars, better draw distance, use PSSR for image quality instead of their TAA... I was hopeful they could support ray-traced shadows also.

Hope we get more news towards launch

It's how it worked with PS4 Pro, unlikely that this time it will work differently

All great, but mode 2 and mode 3 should be the same.

Mode 1 and Mode 2.
Mode 2 still compatibility mode when Pro emulates base model, limiting CU available for game, just with a bit higher clock.
PS5Pro clocks close to base model, so maybe this time boost mode will be skipped and we will have only 1, 3 and 4
Old games w/o patch then will run exactly the same as on base model

 

[tommib]

Silent Hill 2, apparently.

Source?

 

[SkyHighTrees]

Really hope the following:

Astrobot
Spacemarine 2
Silent Hill 2
Wukong
BG3
Helldivers 2
Returnal

Make it onto the list

we prayin for days like that

I just want the PSVR 2 details.

 

[SkyHighTrees]

I just want the PSVR 2 details.

YES. Better tree textures and lighting, plus 90 fps is what I expect. Trees are justa bit worse with VR, same with lighting

I sincerely hope all 60 frame reprojection games are all able to hit 90, I'll immediately go back and re-play RE4. Pushing the FPS to 90 will probably alleviate motion sickness for the majority of people (combined with reducing the brightness to lower frame persistence)

Thanks. I heard people saying it was, it's just not officially announced yet.

Really hoping for an Uncharted 4/Lost Legacy patch for the full quality mode at 60.

Right now the 40 FPS option is very, very excellent, but

Yeah I didn't mean to sound like it was fake news just not official news enough for me to add it to the list

 

[Tqaulity]

I'm hoping with Dead Space, without a patch (I bet EA dont give it one). It irons out the unstable frame rate and occasional stutter and negate the need for VRR. Which would be great.

That would be nice but this game was literally broken IMO due to the horrendous FSR implementation. IQ suffered horribly so PSSR could do absolutely wonders in this one (similar case with Forspoken as well)

 

[MDSLKTR]

When they updated it with vrr support, pro should brute force through it if you have the right tv

Analysis - [Digital Foundry] Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves: New 120Hz VRR Patch Unlocks PS5 GPU Performance

A recent patch for Naughty Dog's Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection uses 120Hz displays and variable refresh rate support to offer an excellent 40fps fidelity mode and some very, very fast 1440p performance. With frame-rate caps removed, we get to see exactly what the PS5 GPU can do across...

www.neogaf.com

 

[Mibu no ookami]

PS5 Pro support has to imply a specific Pro Mode for the game, otherwise it makes no sense

PS5 Pro of course is 100% backwards compatible with base PS5, so it's a moot point saying a PS5 game should run on it

My guess is that the "Enhanced for PS5" label refers to OLDER games released BEFORE September 16

You don't need that label now that support is mandatory

I guarantee future games will get the label.

Yup just like ps4 pro enhanced games there's always a label on the back of packaging or in the ps store I don't expect anything different.

4K 60 might be a good excuse to revisit again 4 and play for the first time the DLC.

I doubt all future games get the pro enhanced label

 

[Radical_3d]

Lost Legacy is better than U4, imo.

That’s a low bar. U4 is a crippled game that doesn’t understand the hard difficulty, with 4 months of reshoots from drunk-man overwriting the genius of Hennig because a couple of wankers gave him 10/10s at a younger age that her, with the pacing of a Civilization game in an action game.

Well, yeah… I’ll start with the gals first.

Yeah agree with that.

Even though i preferred the overall story of uncharted 4, the shit went on for too long.

Lost legacy was a good length.

 

[mayham2199]

I'll need to play it on my pro. I got burnt out on Uncharted honestly but it's been long enough since 4 that I'm ready to go back to that type of game.

Fidelity unlocked and VRR should be STANDARD game modes on every game.

This is the LEAST devs should do for PS5 games with the Pro.

It'll be quite interesting to see what the PS5 Pro can deliver in games like this, but it would also be interesting to see if they could deliver fidelity like appearance at 120 fps if they added PSSR and dropped the native resolution to like 1440p.

 

[Vick]

That would be nice but this game was literally broken IMO due to the horrendous FSR implementation. IQ suffered horribly so PSSR could do absolutely wonders in this one (similar case with Forspoken as well)

That was true at lauch, but luckily they fixed it in a relatively quick manner by removing the VRS entirely.

Game looks and runs great in Performance Mode, had an literal blast for four consecutive playthroughs:

Can't remember a single issue, but would surely still welcome Pro support.

 

[King Dazzar]

Vick yeah its fine if use VRR, but even then its still using DRS. For me, I'm hoping it improves the DRS and I can switch off VRR. There's also some minor/occasional traversal stutter. But I'm not too bothered by that.

 

[jm89]

 

[saintjules]

I'd like to know the game though..

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I really hope they expand the official list soon. I know pretty much everything upcoming is likely to have a PS5 Pro mode or something along those lines, but the list of existing games getting upgraded is pretty pathetic. For whatever reason, I'm really jonesing for Hitman.

It's crazy that FF16 which underperformed wasn't high on that list... easy way to get people more interested.

Square has no idea what they're doing.

See, that's the thing - I just assumed FF16 would be on there somewhere. Why wouldn't it be? There's a lot of really bizarre omissions, and it's annoying that we really have no clarity on what to expect when the console ships. You'd think they would've learned how to handle this from the PS4 Pro, but... nope.

Same thing with Returnal... You'd think it would be up there. Almost every internal PS5 game is getting boosted and its one of the few exclusives on PS5 with Demon's Souls and Spider-Man 2.

 

[Xaeroxcore666]

all those games run just fine on PS5, PS5 pro looks like a big waste of money right now.

Word, doesn´t matter how much feelings can be hurted.

 

[balls of snow]

I wanna say its the Callisto Protocol devs. That game was made in Ue4. And they have another game incoming this year.

 

[vkbest]

The rumors suggest that they did.

https://insider-gaming.com/playstation-5-pro-2024-release/



Why all of these games aren't listed as having PS5 Pro enhancements is beyond me, but it is possible they have a certain amount of time to release PS5 Pro patches on these titles. I don't know.

Support means the game is a PS5 pro compatible, so not using boost mode.

Enhanced games are games with enhancements the original one don’t have
