Sony Forces PSSR 2.0 On Every PS5 Pro Game, As New Beta Update Flips The Upscaler Toggle On By Default
Key Points:
- The defining feature of the PS5 Pro is the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaler, with the enhanced PSSR 2.0 significantly improving gaming visuals compared to the first version.
- Some older games still support only the original PSSR, relying on the "Enhance PSSR Image Quality" toggle to boost image quality, which Sony plans to phase out with future upscaler updates.
- Sony has begun inviting users to test a new PS5 system software beta update that enables the "Enhance PSSR Image Quality" feature by default, improving visuals in games using the earlier PSSR version.
- The beta update also includes general performance and stability improvements and minor regional changes to the Turn Off Bluetooth feature, with no major new features announced so far.
- The public release date for this system software update remains unconfirmed, and additional features may be introduced before its official launch.
