The PlayStation 5 Professional has all the time been a machine for hardcore graphical fanatics, with a hefty $700 price ticket and proprietary upscaling know-how known as PlayStation Spectral Tremendous Decision (PSSR). PlayStation is now doubling down on that market by making the PS5 Professional much more of a technological powerhouse by implementing one thing extra like AMD’s current FSR 4 know-how in 2026.
“Our target is to have something very similar to FSR 4’s upscaler available on PS5 Pro for 2026 titles as the next evolution of PSSR,” Cerny says.
The foundations of FSR, which makes use of machine studying to immediately upscale photos bypassing any {hardware} efficiency and upscaling a 720p picture to 4K and is a hybrid of CNN and transformer fashions, have been birthed from the collaborative efforts of Sony and AMD and the PS5 Professional was seemingly constructed with this improve in thoughts. It might take a short while for video games to benefit from this particular implementation, although.
Whereas PlayStation remains to be within the implementation part for FSR 4, they’re nonetheless encouraging builders to make use of PSSR on the PS5 Professional. Whereas it will probably see some use within the close to future on at the moment obtainable {hardware}, it isn’t troublesome to see that Sony is trying towards the long run and the following era of consoles with these steps. Implementation utilizing the PlayStation 5 remains to be holding one foot firmly grounded whereas they dip their toes in with additional collaborating.
For a theoretical PlayStation 6, we would even see one thing that’s not much like FSR 4, however precise implementation of FSR 4. Or maybe even a PSSR 2 that leapfrogs it totally.
