Ratchet & Clank, Spider-Man 2 PS5 Pro update released

Developers added PS5Pro support as we get closer to the improved console. This time, Insomnia deploys updates for Ratchet & Clank: Rift apartAnd Spider Man 2 that take advantage of all the bells and whistles that PS5 Pro has to offer.

What are the Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Spider-Man 2 PS5 Pro updates?

Both the Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Spider-Man 2 PS5 Pro updates are very similar, as they introduce two new graphics modes and graphics toggles to the game.

The ‘performance pro’ mode is the default PS5 Pro setting. It aims for 60 frames per second while maintaining the image quality of the standard Fidelity mode. To achieve this, the enhanced console’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) machine learning upscaling technology is used. All ray tracing features are enabled by default, including ray tracing reflections on water and windows. The patch notes state that this mode is recommended for most players.

The “fidelity pro” mode is for players who want to experiment with some of the new graphics switches. This mode targets 30 FPS and can achieve higher frame rates with a combination of tuning the new graphics features and using a display with VRR and 120 Hz. It is also noted that pedestrian density may increase in some areas and hair detail may increase.

The new graphics switches are linked to the ray tracing functions. Specifically, there is a switch for ray traced reflections with medium (performance standard) and high (fidelity standard) settings. The ray traced ambient occlusion switch can be set to off (standard performance), medium and high (standard fidelity).

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart has another bug fix: missing fur wetness in some movies on Corson V.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Spider-Man 2 are just two PlayStation first party games receiving PS5 Pro-specific updates. The Last of Us part 2 remastered, God of War RagnarokAnd Horizon Zero Dawn remastered will also be expanded with the new console. The PS5 Pro will launch on November 7, 2024.
