Analysis Reveals PlayStation 5 Pro Horizon Forbidden West and Zero Dawn Remastered Upscaling Comparable to NVIDIA DLSS

Revolutionary Upscaling Technology in Horizon Forbidden West and Zero Dawn Remastered

Guerrilla Games has introduced an impressive upscaling solution for Horizon Forbidden West and Zero Dawn Remastered on PlayStation 5 Pro, achieving image quality comparable to NVIDIA’s esteemed DLSS technology on PC platforms, according to a recent analysis.

Comparative Analysis of Upscaling Solutions

The expertise of Digital Foundry provided a comprehensive review examining the PS5 Pro versions of these titles. Their analysis juxtaposed Guerrilla’s upscaling technology against notable PC alternatives, including NVIDIA DLSS and AMD’s FSR 3. Using a 1440p native resolution that upscale to 4K, the developers have managed superior handling of visual elements. Specifically, aspects such as water reflections and motion effects demonstrated significant enhancements over NVIDIA DLSS, which had an edge when it comes to particle rendering.

Performance vs. AMD FSR 3

When positioned against AMD’s FSR 3, Guerrilla’s upscaling approach exhibits a far more refined output. Reports indicate that AMD’s solution suffers from issues like blurry textures on grass during static camera scenes and generally softer imagery.

Why Guerrilla Games Opted Out of PS5 Pro’s PSSR

The compelling results of Guerrilla’s upscaling technology make it apparent why they opted not to use the PlayStation 5 Pro’s PSSR solution, which has been criticized for its inconsistent performance in many updated titles. This proprietary upscaling technique was designed not just for current releases but also to be applicable to future projects, which raises anticipation for how it will perform in upcoming games—a potential marked improvement over PS5 Pro’s PSSR.

The Broader Potential of PlayStation 5 Pro

The PlayStation 5 Pro is poised to offer much more than merely an enhanced AI-driven upscaling option. With continual advancements in graphics technologies, it will be intriguing to observe how these innovations shape the gaming landscape.
