PS5 Pro players have been left disappointed as yet another major upcoming game performs poorly on the pricey console. The culprit this time is Obsidian Entertainment’s The Outer Worlds 2, which is a bit surprising because Xbox Studios have been pretty good at supporting PS5 Pro.
Upcoming Obsidian game The Outer Worlds 2 performs the worst on PS5 Pro
Experts at Digital Foundry published a tech review for The Outer Worlds 2, noting that while the game impresses on Xbox, its performance leaves much to be desired on both the base PS5 and PS5 Pro.
On the base PS5, The Outer Worlds 2 suffers from issues like screen tearing and frame rate dips. But it’s the PS5 Pro performance that’s far more disappointing, with Digital Foundry noting that the game’s visuals can be “remarkably unstable” on the console.
Oddly enough, The Outer Worlds 2’s PS Store page carries the “Pro Enhanced tag,” but there aren’t any noteworthy enhancements to be seen. To top it off, the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaler doesn’t interact well with the game and makes its visuals worse.
The Outer Worlds 2 will release on October 29. Reviews for the game are already trickling out, and it currently holds an average of 81/100 (PS5 version) on Metacritic based on 21 reviews.

It’s always tough to see expectations not met, especially for PS5 Pro players who are eager for new experiences. Hopefully, future releases will bring the excitement everyone is looking for.
I completely understand that frustration! It’s interesting how the gaming landscape is evolving; sometimes, developers focus more on optimizing for current-gen consoles rather than creating enhanced versions for the Pro. It makes me wonder how this will impact future game releases!
Absolutely, the changing gaming landscape really highlights the challenges developers face. It’s worth noting how many players are now prioritizing performance and graphics over exclusive titles, which might influence future game releases for the PS5 Pro.
