Titles like The Last of Us Part II Remastered or Horizon Forbidden West pop with detail—think crisper textures, better shadows, and fluid motion that makes every moment feel alive. Ray tracing, which adds realistic lighting effects, is up to three times faster than the base PS5. If you’ve ever seen sunlight glint off a virtual lake and thought, “Wow, that looks real,” this is the tech making it happen.
Backward compatibility adds another layer of value. The PS5 Pro can play over 8,500 PS4 games, and its enhanced Game Boost feature makes many of them run smoother and look better than ever. The console itself is the same height as the original PS5 but as wide as the slimmer models, so it fits neatly into your setup.
Straight to the point – PS5 Pro is going to benefit the games that are tailored, by Sony / other developers, to utilize the PSSR enhancing feature. When that Pro enhancement exists, you can expect a near / at 60 FPS for the game using this feature. Prime point, Star Wars: Outlaws; it’s pro performance mode now incorporates the Fidelity Mode of the base PS5 while boosting the FPS to 60 – it’s noticeable and if your TV or chose Gaming Monitor has the appropriate specs for Variable Refresh Rate (up to 120hz), then you’re getting even more out of the Pro,” said one reviewer.
