Alan Wake 2’s Upgraded PSSR Delivers A Vast Improvement

DF: “Alan Wake 2 is one of our games of the generation – a proper technical showcase – but with the arrival of Sony’s upgraded PSSR upscaler, it’s also a key proving ground for the capabilities of the revised technology. In its 60fps performance mode, the game’s complex foliage, dense geometry and demanding lighting are paired with an internal 864p resolution, upscaled to 4K. It’s a challenge that the original PSSR couldn’t handle, sometimes comparing unfavourably with the original FSR2. However, the upgraded PSSR is a revelation by comparison.”
