Silent Hill 2’s PS5 Pro patch is another update with big image quality issues

Silent Hill 2 Remake is a perfect candidate for a PlayStation 5 Pro upgrade. A month after its October release, frame-rate drops still detract from the base PS5 experience – in both its 60fps performance and 30fps quality modes – all of which makes the prospect of new hardware fixing the issue rather compelling. There’s an air of mystery surrounding this PS5 Pro upgrade, though. Developer Bloober Team makes no explicit mention of Pro support in its patch notes and all we have to go on is a brief note on the PlayStation Store that it has a Pro patch. Still, booting the game it’s clear that a PS5 Pro upgrade is indeed in place, as stealthy as it is. There’s a boost in frame-rate on both modes – quality and performance – that allows for a more stable 30 and 60 frames per second. Plus, Sony’s PSSR upscaling is now used on PS5 Pro, replacing the TSR upscaling method of the base console. The problem is that there are some glaring image stability issues not found on the standard PlayStation 5 – and this looks to be another game with a troubled PSSR upscaling implementation.
