Sucker Punch Explain The PS4 Pro Improvements To Infamous Second Son & First Light

Second wind for the Second Son

It’s almost PS4 Pro time and Sony are wheeling out some games you had forgotten to show you just how super shiny they can be with a bit of extra horsepower. Both Infamous Second Son and First Light have been tweaked and you can download the patches for them right now.

“As a developer, it’s great to see games that we released two years ago come to life in more dazzling ways than ever before,” said Jason Connell from Sucker Punch. “The increased power, resolution, and HDR capabilities of the PS4 Pro breathe new life into every corner of the game.”

“If you’re into lighting, rendering, or VFX, I would encourage you to check it out,” he adds. “Second Son and First Light are beautiful games on PS4, but on PS4 Pro, they’re an exciting window into the future.”

But you don’t want to read about devs waffling that their games look super nice, you want to look, so here are some gorgeous screenshots.

Second Son and First Light are beautiful, horrible games. Their beauty only rivaled by their horrible-ness.

*Edit* maybe not "horrible". Just horribly mediocre. I'll give them a try again just to see the upgrade. That's about it. I'll leave, now.

Actually if they play anything like the first two, I'll have a blast with these the first time around.  Just speaking for myself of course.

If they play like the first two, I will very likely have two more platinum trophies

I am usually not one to care for trophies, but I love Infamous.

They look good and play well enough. They're just missing something. I liked the first one but never played part 2. Let me know what you think!

It looks like especially the lighting has been improved on, it still looks great even though it was practically a launch game

I'll be looking at buying a PS4 Pro at Black Friday if there are any deals, but I have Second Son still in shrinkwrap waiting to be played. So we'll see.

I never played 1 & 2 and thought SS and FL were pretty good. At least enough to go through and get the platinum for each one.

Second Son has some of the best gameplay this gen....and beautiful open world

Get out.

Kidding fo course! I do think that Second Son is easily the weakest game in the series, but I still think it's good. It is certainly shallow compared to the first two, and Delsin is certainly no Cole.

I actually prefered First Light to Second Son though.

OP: I was hoping a more technical breakdown of what the Pro brings to the table with the games...
