Starfield's PlayStation 5 version is almost upon us. To gear folks up for what Sony-touting gamers can expect, Bethesda has released a primer vid that breaks it all down. To be sure, there are a couple of distinctly PS5-esque implementations that I'm excited to sample. But it's the graphics side that's got people talking.
PSSR is in. PS5 Pro enhancements are on the table. Combined, this means that Starfield is unlikely to look anything less than, forgive the pun, but stellar for its big April 7 (re)launch.
On PlayStation 5 Pro, Starfield comes in two distinct flavors. There's Performance Mode, which targets 60 FPS, and Quality Mode, which targets 30 FPS. Standard stuff, to be sure. But with full PSSR support packed in, Performance Mode should still look quite nice. PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution can make a sizable difference, especially in games like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, which remains one of the big poster boards for buying a Pro.
If you can even afford one at this point.
Bethesda points out that all PS5 owners can still take advantage of trophy support and SSD optimization, which, uh, yeah. I guess they felt the need to say...
