PlayStation 5 Pro Comparison Video Showcases Improvements Across 20+ Games
A newly released comparison video from ElAnalistaDeBits takes an in-depth look at how the PlayStation 5 Pro enhances gaming performance compared to the base model. Covering over 20 popular games, the video provides a comprehensive side-by-side analysis of patched and unpatched titles, revealing notable improvements in performance, visuals, and resolution—though not without its shortcomings.
Key Takeaways from the Video
Patched Titles Shine: Games like Marvel's Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarok, The Last of Us Part I and II, Dragon's Dogma 2, and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth showcase significant improvements on the PS5 Pro, with higher frame rates, enhanced textures, and smoother gameplay.
Unpatched Titles Get Subtle Boosts: Even games that haven't been patched for the PS5 Pro, such as Final Fantasy XVI, exhibit slight performance enhancements due to the console's increased power.
AI-Powered Upscaling Underwhelms: The PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaler, touted as the first AI-powered upscaler in console gaming, struggles with certain titles. Games with lower internal resolutions, like Alan Wake 2, suffer from inconsistent image quality. Developers have indicated that these issues may stem from outdated versions of the upscaler, with future updates expected to deliver better results.
Despite some early hiccups, the PS5 Pro's more powerful GPU and advanced upscaling technology set the stage for a new level of console gaming. As developers optimize their games to take full advantage of the hardware, we can expect even more dramatic improvements in future releases.
The PlayStation 5 Pro is now available worldwide.
