PS5 QSSR Control Resonant

Your standard PS5 is getting a little sharper, as Sony has named six more games getting its QSSR upscaling tech, including Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Arc Raiders and No Man's Sky.

Announced on the PlayStation Blog on November 13 by Sony graphics engineer Daniel Craig (no, not that one), Quick Spectral Super Resolution is AI-guided upscaling for the regular PS5, built on the same foundation as the PSSR tech on PS5 Pro. Sony says it can deliver sharper details, cleaner edges and more stable images than traditional upscalers, and VGC notes that Marvel's Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei were the first games to use it when it launched last month.

Sharper webs and shinier planets

Here's where each game stands, based on what the developers told Sony:

Insomniac says Spider-Man 2 gets image stability and sharpness benefits in both its Fidelity and Performance modes, while Remedy says Control Resonant will see noticeable improvements in image stability and fine detail when its update lands in December. Hello Games founder Sean Murray says QSSR lets No Man's Sky render its universe in sharper, cleaner detail while still delivering the best possible framerate, which matters rather a lot when every star in the sky is somewhere you can actually fly to.

Sony says updates are rolling out over the coming weeks and that it'll keep bringing QSSR to more PS5 games in the months ahead, with the tech growing out of Project Amethyst, its ongoing collaboration with AMD. It's a welcome boost for anyone who hasn't splashed out on a PS5 Pro, and if you're wondering how next week's biggest release will run on Sony's consoles, our GTA 6 performance piece covers what Rockstar has said so far. Well, six years in, it's good to know the old PS5 still has a few tricks up its sleeve.
