PS5 Pro Hands-On: Sony's $700 Turbo Console Hits in November

In a CNET exclusive, I visited Sony's PlayStation headquarters to play the all-new PS5 Pro and ask Sony executives what makes this midcycle upgrade different.

www.cnet.com

Sony says about 40 to 50 games will get patches when the system launches in November.

 

[Dacvak]

No Concord, no buy.

 

[Skifi28]

So what was shown in the trailer at the end.

 

[Bloobs]

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

May just bite for FF7 Rebirth Enhanced alone.

 

[Wastelander92]

Rebirth but not XVI?

 

[Bartski]

where the hell is Wukong and Space Marine 2

 

[FUBARx89]

Shame no Cyberpunk on there.

 

[diffusionx]

Games with dodgy performance modes and low dynamic resolutions will also automatically benefit, or should, although I don't know how much and how much it will benefit. Like, Jedi Survivor runs like shit on PS5. Although a $700 device should not be the thing to fix that issue.

Rebirth but not XVI?

Nobody cares

Shame no Cyberpunk on there.

CDPR moved on.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

That seems like a small list.

The two titles I would play (Horizon and LoU2) I already plat’d on PS5.

 

[Euler007]

Nobody cares

I care.

 

[Banjo64]

For £700 I’d expect Xbox like auto framerate/resolution enhancements for hundreds of games, not 15.

 

[ManaByte]

For $700 you can see the detail of Dina's moustache in TLOU2 at 60fps. Day fucking one. /s

 

[Mownoc]

This is just the list from the PlayStation Blog, no new info from Geoff.

 

[Luipadre]

- Alan Wake 2
- Assassin’s Creed: Shadows
- Demon’s Souls
- Dragon’s Dogma 2
- Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
- Gran Turismo 7
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Horizon Forbidden West
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
- The Crew Motorfest
- The First Descendant
- The Last of Us: Part II Remastered

Thats an awful list

 

[mdkirby]

No cyberpunk? I’ve been holding off on playing the expansion expecting it to be on the pro

 

[Trogdor1123]

Demons souls is the most shocking to me actually. It was a launch game

 

[Traxtech]

Black myth needs to be there asap

 

[Mephisto40]

I see Geoff Keighley has the ability to watch a video just like the rest of us

 

[diffusionx]

For £700 I’d expect Xbox like auto framerate/resolution enhancements for hundreds of games, not 15.

He said that PS4 games will be enhanced,, no details on how or how many.

 

[SlimySnake]

Avatar, Wukong, Star Wars Outlaws, Jedi Survivor and Callisto are the best looking games this gen for me and they are all missing.

These RT focused titles wouldve benefited a lot more from the 2-4x RT performance increase so not sure why Sony didnt reach out to those guys to get them ready for launch.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I'm curious how many games in the future will get legit upgrades. I imagine most devs won't do more than whatever Sony implements automatically for such a niche userbase.

 

[emivita]

These are the games that will receive specific PS5 Pro patch enhancements, like better raytracing. For every other PS5 games, graphics mode with higher FPS will be available. Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[MayauMiao]

The color scheme used in the ad made me think they edit out Concord as a free title.

 

[Sethbacca]

I'm gonna probably hold off getting any further into any games beyond Astro at this point until this thing is in my living room. Outlaws and FF7:Rebirth and the like should benefit pretty nicely.

 

[dead monkey uk]

The CNET article says 40 to 50 PS5 games get PRO upgrades at launch.

 

[TrueLegend]

They said 50 games on CNET

 

[adamsapple]

The color scheme used in the ad made me think they edit out Concord as a free title.

You can bet a dollar that if Concord didn't outright crash and burn, it was going to be one of the highlighted games that gets PS5 Pro enhancements.

 

[March Climber]

People in this thread: This list sucks.

Me: When did Sony ever say this is the final list?

 

[dead monkey uk]

I'm gonna probably hold off getting any further into any games beyond Astro at this point until this thing is in my living room. Outlaws and FF7:Rebirth and the like should benefit pretty nicely.

CNET already said FF7: Rebirth got big upgrade

 

[Sethbacca]

CNET already said FF7: Rebirth got big upgrade

Yeah I’m about 15 hours in so it can sit for a bit. Guess I’ll be playing Rocket League and some older stuff for the next couple months.

 

[TintoConCasera]

so not sure why Sony didnt reach out to those guys to get them ready for launch

Wait a moment... are you saying the upgrade to the Pro model only affects a certain number of games, and that those games have to be prepared for that upgrade via a patch or something?

If that's the case then this is fucking ridiculous lol.

 

[Jaybe]

They should prioritize getting Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur’s Game 3, and Wukong.

 

[TGO]

- Alan Wake 2
- Assassin’s Creed: Shadows
- Demon’s Souls
- Dragon’s Dogma 2
- Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
- Gran Turismo 7
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Horizon Forbidden West
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
- The Crew Motorfest
- The First Descendant
- The Last of Us: Part II Remastered

All yours for £700 or £799 if you want a Disc Drive

 

[Woody337]

How is Astro not on there???? It would benefit BIG time with ray tracing instead of cube maps.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

The color scheme used in the ad made me think they edit out Concord as a free title.

Yeah I think the high price is partially because they had to redesign the packaging to remove the “includes Concord” blurb. Also the presentation was originally intended to be way longer than 9 minutes.

 

[Msamy]

Maybe end of month sop to show some of this shit, as per cerny 75 % of ps5 owners love switch level of graphics if it have 60 fps, lol,

 

[SlimySnake]

Wait a moment... are you saying the upgrade to the Pro model only affects a certain number of games, and that those games have to be prepared for that upgrade via a patch or something?

If that's the case then this is fucking ridiculous lol.

thats exactly what this thread is about. certain games are going to get patched and thats the list you see in this thread today.

now avatar does have dynamic resolution scaling so its possible that their game is smart enough to detect more gpu power and run at higher resolutions, but thats not a given.

 

[Venom Snake]

Wait a moment... are you saying the upgrade to the Pro model only affects a certain number of games, and that those games have to be prepared for that upgrade via a patch or something?

If that's the case then this is fucking ridiculous lol.

And how would the game know that this is not an ordinary PS5?

 

[Kacho]

Wait a moment... are you saying the upgrade to the Pro model only affects a certain number of games, and that those games have to be prepared for that upgrade via a patch or something?

If that's the case then this is fucking ridiculous lol.

Some games will run marginally better with no patch, but yeah, a patch is needed for actual upgrades. Same with the PS4 Pro and One X.

Keep in mind, a game like RDR2 still ran at 30fps on PS4 Pro and One X, so I’d expect the same for GTA6.

 

[Saber]

Doesn't sounds like an extensive list to justify the price imo. Maybe they will go will a more big list later?

Also, Hogwarts Legacy is there set for PS5 but I don't think that includes it running the game on 60fps.

 

[TintoConCasera]

SlimySnake Venom Snake Kacho thanks for clarifying.

Imo it's kinda lame that you still have to wait for the devs to patch the games, but I guess that games that run at uncapped framerates and kinda run like shit will benefit the most out of the box from this upgrade.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth in particular popped compared to the fuzzier graphics on the existing PS5 version. Everything was sharper, and still 60fps smooth. It felt like putting new glasses on.

 

[SALMORE]

PS4 games will be boosted too !! Nice

 

[Venom Snake]

If there is demand for PS5 pro, more developers may jump on this train over time. There are quite a few games that i missed due to performance issues, and i would gladly buy them if they received such a patch.

If more people think similarly, the market will notice.

 

[Methos#1975]

I expect Star Wars Outlaw is one of them since AC Shadows is confirmed. Probably Avatar as well.

 

[tanners]

No black myth??? That game run terrible on base ps5

 

[SlimySnake]

Yes and no. its only a 45% raw performance increase so those 31-35 uncapped modes in wukong and dragons dogma 2 wont even hit 50 fps let alone 60 fps. they need to offer a 60 fps mode that utilizes the new PSSR API along with the new SDK improvements from the 2-4x RT improvements in the architecture. Avatar drops to 720p in its performance mode which can go up to 1080p internal but the 45% boost only gets them to 900p and that will still be using FSR which looks like shit under 1080p and the lower Settings preset for the performance mode.

Ubisoft Massive will need to patch the 30 fps mode to go to 60 fps then use PSSR instead of FSR and rebuild their engine to the latest SDK to get the RT improvements in fidelity mode.

I just wanted Bloodborne, man.
