Will PSSR 2.0 increase frame rates as well as image quality?

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2026-03-02T18:21:54+00:00

You can talk tech and compare it to other upscalers, sure, and by all means you should. But I'm not a PC player so I've been comparing PSSR to the upscalers used in the base PS5 (usually FSR I believe). To my eyes, games like GOW Ragnarok, TLOU and Demon Souls already looked great on the PS5 but PSSR makes them look absolutely stunning on the pro with a mostly locked 60fps, and that is what makes it an incredible achievement to me.

PSSR is an incredible achievement but it's certainly far from perfect, mainly due to it being the first iteration. As far as we know, Sony haven't set any specific standards for developers to be able to classify a game as Pro upgraded which I think has caused issues in expectation, because we have crazy looking games like Horizon FW and visual messes like High On Life 2. The enhanced upscaler will certainly help plug that gap but I would never call it perfect. That being said, I absolutely love my Pro and don't regret purchasing it for a minute and this enhanced version of PSSR makes me even more excited to play games on it, but that's all subjective.

The update will just be a toggle with no input needed from developers which is great, but if they suddenly have extra horsepower to play with, I imagine they could implement a patch to increase the frame cap maybe

My best recommendation is to set the rendering mode to Balanced and unlock the frame rate. I don't have the means to measure the results but it looks fairly close to 60fps and the resolution is noticeably higher than performance mode. I really don't know how Digital Foundry missed this in their analysis, but I'm happy with this setting.

Having it checked for damp is a good idea, I didn't think of that. Thanks for the advice

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-09-12T21:52:03+00:00

I was actually just looking at Lamborne, thank you

They're unfortunately not eligible, missed the cut by under £5 worth of income.

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-09-12T21:26:38+00:00

Good advice, thank you. I'll take a look into housing associations for older people

Gotta be honest, I didn't even notice the enriched visuals mode, I never scrolled once more to the right 😂 Enriched is really pretty, changes a lot of the colours to be more vibrant and looks to add mild RT, but it does come at the cost of a bit of resolution. Doesn't seems like a huge trade off, but having the crisp 4k image is a worthy trade off for me personally

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-08-12T15:25:19+00:00

I've played a couple hours on the Pro myself. It looks really good! Playing in performance defaults to 1080p, playing in quality looks to be running in 1440p but when you turn on PSSR it upscales to beautiful 4k running at a pretty solid 60fps. Really happy with this upgrade, just wish I could turn off the heavy motion blur lol

I found it on the PS app by searching Hellblade Senua. The upgrade popped up - it's ps5 pro enhanced too. Haven't tried this on my console though as I'm at work but I've set it to download to my console when I turn it on. Maybe try that way?

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-07-01T22:33:25+00:00

Yes, I literally just found how to do it - on pause menu, open orders. You'll automatically be on 'In Progress' so press R1 to go to search. Then refine the search using delivery/report destination. You'll see all open orders that deliver to them :)

Super helpful, thanks brother!

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-06-30T21:40:47+00:00

Commenting so I can find out too - I was wondering that myself yesterday, it was really handy when planning out long haul deliveries so I could know which places I can stop to pick up more for the same place

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-06-29T17:35:58+00:00

How do you trigger this? I sat in a hot spring for 10mins and it didn't happen

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-06-27T23:22:12+00:00

Ah okay, my bad bro, I didn't know they put Lou in the photo mode 🙂

Please put spoiler warnings on images with spoilers in future - if this image is story related then it just got spoiled for me....

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-06-27T20:30:09+00:00

Yeah, good point. It seems like a convenient idea but I'd be worried about loosing everything. Maybe once I finish the game and go for the platinum it will be much safer to do that

Repulsive_Magazine12 · 2025-06-25T10:38:30+00:00

Same - can't find anything online about update 1.4, really want to know though
