If you've bought a PlayStation 5 Pro and aren't happy with how the much talked about PSSR upscaling is doing in some games, then you wouldn't be alone - but there's seemingly a reason for this. Wccftech noticed a post on the ResetERA forums which was in reply to a raft of complaints agreeing with Digital Foundry's findings that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor actually looks worse on PS5 Pro, not better with the bells and whistles from the new variant of Sony's console. Notably Star Wars Jedi: Survivor reportedly has 'severe' image quality problems including foliage looking terrible when ray tracing effects hit it, causing a nasty strobing effect.
Wccftech points to a post from a developer, Koralsky - judging from comments made on X, this might just be Ivaylo Koralsky, Studio Manager of Kyodai, a Bulgarian dev behind Truck Driver: The American Dream - who makes an interesting point about PSSR and wonky image quality. Koralsky tells us: So, there you have it. The results we see with Star Wars Jedi: Survivor are purportedly down to that older version of PSSR, and we can expect much better results going forward.
PS5 Pro buyers will certainly be hoping so, and Sony needs to get its act together, as the launch of the new Pro console - with its extremely weighty price tag - has been pretty messy so far..
