Remedy Entertainment has revealed their plans for Alan Wake 2 and the improvements coming to the game with a free PlayStation 5 Pro update.
The update will include a new Quality Mode and a new Performance Mode, allowing players to customize their experience with the game.
Here's what Remedy Entertainment had to say.
Alan Wake 2 is taking full advantage of Sony’s PlayStation 5 Pro to enhance the game experience further. Remedy’s Northlight engine team has spent a good amount of time updating the technology behind Alan Wake 2, with the main new feature for the Pro being the addition of ray tracing.
The Quality and Performance modes in Alan Wake 2 are upgraded on the PS5 Pro. They utilize Sony’s new “PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution” aka PSSR upscaling method. To quote Sony’s marketing language, "PSSR is an AI-driven upscaling that uses a machine learning-based technology to provide super sharp image clarity by adding an extraordinary amount of detail."
