Sony's PlayStation 5 Pro is a mid-lifecycle upgrade for the aging PlayStation 5 (non-Pro), but it may have some important features added soon. Sony has worked closely with AMD on its graphics technology that powers its PS5 consoles,

Many new PS5 Pro games already use an AI upscaler called “PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution” (PSSR) on their AMD-based chips. PSSR can turn 720p images into 4K ones on the fly while adding extra particle effects, and we’ve been relatively impressed by its quality compared to, say, FSR 3.

“Our target is to have something very similar to FSR 4’s upscaler available on PS5 Pro for 2026 titles as the next evolution of PSSR; it should take the same inputs and produce essentially the same outputs. Doing that implementation is rather ambitious and time-consuming, which is why you haven’t already seen this new upscaler on PS5 Pro.”

The PS5 Pro could be getting similar tech to AMD’s new version of FSR next year. AMD released the next generation of their graphics cards, the Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT, last week. They’re built around their new RDNA 4 architecture, which includes hardware support for a new version of FidelityFX Super Resolution, called FSR 4.

The PlayStation 5 Pro is already an incredibly powerful console, but players can expect it to get a major graphical boost in 2026.
