Sony PlayStation 5 Pro review: across the board improvements, but is it worth the money?


The PlayStation 5 Pro is here - and Digital Foundry presents its verdict.

In terms of image quality, it's comparable with the existing PS5 game - which already looks great - but it's actually running at a lower resolution, using the horsepower of the Pro to deliver increased realism via the RT features. We've covered PSSR in depth in the pre-release period across two games - The Last of Us Part 2 and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart- with the latter allowing us to stack up Sony's upscaling efforts against PC standards like FSR 3.1 and DLSS 3.7. Sony has delivered a new version of the PlayStation 5 that is quantifiably better than the standard model across multiple dimensions - the outlier being CPU performance, which only receives a modest 10 percent boost that is optional for developers.
