Right now, we’re excited to announce that an upgraded model of PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Tremendous Decision) will probably be rolling out globally to PS5 Professional gamers within the coming weeks. PSSR is an AI library that analyzes sport photos pixel by pixel because it upscales them, and it’s been used to increase the efficient decision of over 50 titles on PS5 Professional to date.
We’ve been laborious at work on a brand new model of PSSR, which takes a really completely different strategy to not solely the neural community but in addition the general algorithm. We’re completely satisfied to share that Resident Evil Requiem – delivery right now – is the primary title to use this extra superior PSSR, which is serving to to maintain each body price and picture high quality excessive. Right here’s Masaru Ijuin from Capcom who shares perception on the upgraded model of PSSR for the sport:
“With Resident Evil Requiem, we targeted on enhancing the presentation high quality of the protagonist by means of an upgraded model of RE Engine to deepen the participant’s immersion in horror. For instance, every particular person strand of hair and beard is rendered as a polygon, permitting it to transfer realistically in response to physique movement and wind. The way in which mild passes by means of his hair modifications relying on how the strands of hair are overlapped as nicely. This detailed expression of texture is one of many many particulars that we’d particularly love for our followers to see.
The upgraded PSSR has allowed us to elevate our expressiveness by efficiently processing these particulars and textural particularities, that are historically troublesome to upscale due to their intricacy. We hope you’ll expertise this unprecedented stage of horror and visible constancy, and the brand new gameplay really feel it delivers.”
