PS5 Pro: What to Expect From Enhanced Games and Performance Levels

Exploring PS5 Pro Enhanced Games

The promise of console games running at 4K resolution with a framerate of 60 FPS has been around for many years. Consoles like the PS4 Pro or Xbox One already teased the idea. Many current titles usually offer two graphic modes, performance or quality: in the first, framerate is sacrificed in exchange for higher resolution, and in the second, details are lost for pushing the framerate.

The Reality of PS5 Pro's Expectations

With the PS5 Pro, Sony intends for the quality mode to run at high resolution, but without leaving aside the framerate. Does this mean that all enhanced games will run at 4K/60 FPS? The answer is no.

• According to Tom Warren of The Verge, games labeled as “enhanced” does not guarantee 60 FPS as one of the requirements imposed by Sony.
• He stated, “Sony wasn’t super clear on this history, but there will still be 30 FPS PS5 Pro Enhanced games.”

The new PS5 Pro will have the same processor as the PS5 and PS5 Slim but will add a series of hardware improvements that boost the quality of graphics and gaming performance. It boasts a GPU with 67% more power than its predecessors, with advanced ray tracing and i artificial intelligence technology designed to rescale resolution and provide more detail.

Price and Release Before Launch

However, this new machine will sell for $699.99, which has unleashed criticism from the community. The fact that it does not include a disc reader – it can be purchased separately – or a vertical stand has only added fuel to the fire. The PS5 Pro is set to release on November 7, and the first games slated to receive enhancements on the new console have already been confirmed.
