DF Weekly: Remedy fix Alan Wake 2 on PS5 Pro with PSSR toggle and new 40fps mode


Alan Wake 2's PS5 Pro patch has arrived - but is it any good? Will covers this and more highlights from DF Weekly #194 as we close out 2024.

We couldn't spot any settings tweaks in these side-by-side comparisons between the launch and current versions of Alan Wake 2 on PS5 Pro in performance mode, despite Remedy's claims of changes. It gives you the hardware RT from the quality mode at perceptibly higher frame-rate - after all, 40fps is exactly mid-way between 30fps and 60fps in terms of milliseconds per frame - and works well in our testing with a locked 40fps update rate. The design of the PS6 may be informed by similar methods, carving out new functionality from existing hardware, but AMD's UDNA architecture announcements and various rumours suggest there may be some significant surprises in store too.
