Challenges Encountered by PlayStation 5 Pro Upgrade
Sony recently released a mid-generation upgrade for the PlayStation 5, catering to gamers who seek enhanced resolutions and frame rates for their gaming experience. Alongside the launch, the company unveiled a comprehensive list of 55 titles that have been designated as “Pro-Enhanced”to maximize this new hardware’s capabilities.
Issues Arise with Pro-Enhanced Titles
Despite the excitement surrounding the new hardware, players have reported several visual issues affecting a number of these enhanced games. Concerns include glitches such as flickering and peculiar lighting artifacts that detract from gameplay, impacting user experience.
Games Affected by Technical Glitches
Among the most frequently reported issues, titles like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the Silent Hill 2 remake, and Alan Wake 2 have surfaced as notable examples of Pro-Enhanced games facing challenges. Developers are beginning to acknowledge these bugs and are working towards resolutions.

Similarly, Bloober Team, the developers behind the Silent Hill 2 remake, addressed a user inquiry about the PS5 Pro issues, indicating that they are actively addressing the reported problems.
Possible Technical Causes
According to analyses conducted by Digital Foundry, it appears that the glitches may be linked to Sony’s new PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology. This AI-driven upscaling solution aims to enhance frame rates while preserving visual clarity, drawing a comparison to Nvidia’s DLSS technology used in gaming PCs.
As the community continues to provide feedback, players eagerly await fixes and updates from the affected titles’ developers, hoping to fully enjoy the capabilities of the PlayStation 5 Pro.
