While Sony is currently rolling out Upgraded PSSR support for its PS5 Pro users across several big titles, there are still some big names that will support it in the coming weeks. These include the previously confirmed Crimson Desert, launching on March 19th, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows, out now on current-gen platforms. However, there is one other title that arguably stands out the most: Cyberpunk 2077.
If you’ll recall, CD Projekt RED said there were no plans to support PS5 Pro back in November 2024 (which it further reiterated regarding patch 2.2). To see it change course is quite interesting. Of course, how the development team plans to utilize it remains to be seen.
Thus far, other developers have praised Upgraded PSSR for providing higher-quality and more stable image quality. In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Silent Hill f, it’s helped reduce flickering to a significant degree compared to the older PSSR. Ninja Theory even praised it for improving the quality of particles in Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2.
If PS5 Pro support is on the horizon, then you have to wonder about that other long-requested feature, New Game Plus. Is this a sign that CD Projekt RED is finally going to give in to fans? One certainly hopes, so stay tuned for updates in the meantime.
