Releasing on November 12, the PlayStation 5 will offer players a wealth of new technological upgrades, including stunning 4K visuals, ray-tracing, and unparalleled HDR technology. It seems it will well and truly be the best console experience PlayStation users have seen to date, making for a comprehensive and stunning way to play the next slate of must-have video games.
This hardware upgrade will also make a significant change to the common frame rate available for most titles, with the PlayStation 5 promising up to 120 FPS on certain releases. However, it seems this new standard for frame rate will extend beyond just the new games coming to the console, with Sony acknowledging on its website that backward compatible PS4 games will also benefit from the upgrade.
Listed as “Game Boost” on the official PlayStation website, the feature will allegedly allow users to “enjoy faster and smoother frame rates in select PS4 and PS VR games.” What these titles will be is anyone’s guess, but it seems as though the console will offer smoother gameplay for some of this generation’s best titles. Seeing as controversy seems to spread whenever a current game is locked to 30 FPS, there will likely be a lot of fans happy that they can go back and experience some of their favorite modern releases at higher frame rates.
It’s not a surprise to see PlayStation touting frame rates after the news that the PS5 will look to offer gamers more choice when it comes to visuals this generation. Insomniac revealed that players could put Spider-Man: Miles Morales into “performance mode” earlier this year, allowing players to enjoy 4K, 60 FPS gameplay, while they could also opt to lower the frame rate and enjoy a more visually rich experience as well. Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart seems to be doing the same, offering separate modes for those who prefer a higher frame rate over higher resolution.
It’ll be interesting to see if the new frame rates are utilized with PlayStation’s recently announced PlayStation Plus Collection, which allows players to enjoy some of Sony’s biggest exclusives from this generation for one fixed monthly cost. It seems very similar to Microsoft’s heralded Xbox Game Pass, which has quickly become the console’s biggest and best feature, with millions flocking to the service. It’ll be interesting to see how the PlayStation 5 hardware enhances games from this generation regardless, with the promise of higher resolutions and buttery smooth frame rates definitely selling the concept that it’ll be the best place to play.
