We got a preview of PSSR 2 with the launch of Resident Evil Requiem a few weeks ago, but today marks the wider launch of the improved upscaling tech on PS5 Pro. The upgrade lands as part of a system-level update that can apply to all games, but some specific titles – including the likes of Silent Hill 2, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and Monster Hunter Wilds – are getting their own special patches, and arguably the tech's most notable test will be the launch of Crimson Desert later this week.
"PSSR is an AI library that analyzes each frame pixel by pixel as it upscales game visuals," as Sony explains in its announcement. "With this latest evolution, image reconstruction is more precise, motion stability is improved, and developers have greater flexibility to balance performance and fidelity on PS5 Pro."
