Sony announces QSSR AI upscaling tech for base PS5 in Marvel's Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei

Key Points:

• Sony has introduced QSSR (Quick Spectral Super Resolution), a form of AI upscaling technology previously exclusive to the PS5 Pro, now available on the base PS5, enhancing image quality without dedicated AI hardware.
• QSSR requires game updates to support it, with Marvel's Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei already implementing the technology, offering improved pixel clarity and temporal stability.
• The technology uses a streamlined neural network and performance-optimized implementation to deliver better results than existing software upscaling methods like TAA, TSR, and FSR 3 on the base PS5.
• Developers can easily integrate QSSR into games that already support PSSR, and it is expected to see widespread adoption across PlayStation titles, including potential integration in upcoming releases.
• Industry professionals from Insomniac Games and Sucker Punch Productions praise QSSR for bringing enhanced visual fidelity and stability to their games, providing a taste of the PS5 Pro experience to standard PS5 users.
