I'm sure it'll be well above PS5 Pro on paper, I meant more to what extent will that manifest in practise, given diminishing returns. I remain very skeptical of the "biggest leap ever" claims as I've heard that before in recent gens only for the results to not live up to the promise. |
Yeah, I would say a good way to look at this (especially now MS is no longer developing dedicated Xbox software) is to assess the gulf between the best looking PC and console software right now.
I think it will present a really nice boost over base PS5 but not over PS5 Pro. Something like RE9 doesn't scale much beyond PS5 Pro. The main weakness of the console ports at the moment is image quality and RT. It seems the new PSSR is likely to resolve both. Probably in open world games it will show off more of a leap with consistent 60fps and much better raytraycing options etc but I think the gap will typically be small but appreciated for those who want 120fps
