PS5 Pro Elevates Cyberpunk 2077 to a Glossier Night City

The PS5 Pro patch for Cyberpunk 2077 adds three graphics modes (Ray Tracing Pro, Ray Tracing, and Performance) plus Sony’s PSSR2 upscaling, delivering notably sharper lighting and depth across Night City. Ray Tracing Pro maxes RT for a visually stunning but framerate-constrained experience (about 30fps on 60Hz, ~40fps on 120Hz); Ray Tracing offers 60fps with less intensive lighting; and Performance disables RT for the smoothest play, up to ~90fps on 120Hz. Overall, the update markedly improves visuals on PS5 Pro and is described as a must-play on that platform.

PS5 Pro Price Hike Triggers Last-Minute Rush to Buy Before $899.99

Sony will raise the PS5 Pro price to $899.99 on April 2, 2026, prompting a last-minute buying rush as fans try to beat the hike; the new PSSR2 upscaler is praised, and while the surge may boost short-term sales, the price increase is expected to temper demand even as GTA 6 looms.

PS5 Pro's PSSR 2 Upscaler Proves Faster, Enabling Global Image-Upgrades

Sony’s PS5 Pro uses a faster PSSR 2 upscaler that delivers better image quality while cutting processing time, enabling a universal upgrade toggle for all PSSR-supported titles. Mark Cerny says PSSR 2 is about 100 microseconds faster than the original, and Digital Foundry’s tests (including Monster Hunter World) show similar performance with improved visuals, a promising sign for future PlayStation hardware like the PS6.

PS5 Pro gains universal PSSR 2 upscaling toggle in new firmware

Sony has begun rolling out a PS5 system update for PS5 Pro that adds a PSSR 2 upscaler toggle, plus a universal option in Settings > Screen and Video to apply the improved upscaling to other games. Some titles will be patched to support PSSR2 (e.g., Silent Hill F, Final Fantasy Rebirth), and users can disable the toggle if unhappy. The rollout aims to unlock the Pro’s mid-gen potential and reflects Sony’s ongoing AMD collaboration (Project Amethyst) for current and future PlayStation hardware.

PS5 Pro's PSSR2 Delivers Sharper, More Stable Images Across Four Games

Digital Foundry’s tests of the PS5 Pro’s upgraded PSSR2 show significantly crisper, more stable visuals with fewer artefacts across Silent Hill f, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. The improvements address earlier issues like RTGI pulsing and foliage noise, with texture detail and edges looking better while frame rates remain comparable to the older implementation; results appear to depend on developer-upgraded builds rather than a system-wide toggle. The testing reinforces that PSSR2 moves PS5 Pro closer to Sony’s original promise, though questions remain about future ML features and cross-title consistency.
