Every PS5 Pro Enhanced Game (So Far)


Sony has officially revealed the PS5 Pro, a mid-gen refresh in its current console generation that aims to deliver higher-fidelity graphics and smoother frame rates. Upcoming and existing games that take advantage of this new PlayStation hardware will be identified with a PS5 Pro Enhanced label within their title, and already, Sony has several titles that meet the requirements from its own internal studios and blockbuster partners.

Several of the enhanced games that are already available will be patched with free software updates. We don't yet know the specifics of how each Enhanced game will leverage the PS5 Pro's power., but we'll update this list as more games are announced and as we get more details on their respective improvements.

In the PS5 Pro reveal livestream, Sony showed just how much of a graphical difference there is in games that have been upgraded for the console, with PS5 lead architect Mark Cerny revealing how Sony aimed to get games running in 4K with higher frame rates. To do just that, the PS5 Pro will have an upgraded GPU and AI-driven graphical upscaling through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution.

On base PS5 consoles, players have to compromise when it comes to graphics, as they can often choose between a Fidelity mode that improves visual quality and a Performance mode that increases frame rates.

"Game creators are adding PS5 Pro support to new and existing titles and with the big three involved the results can be pretty amazing. With graphics showing something like Fidelity levels of detail but at double the frame rate," Cerny explained in the PS5 Pro livestream. "This goal of delivering almost Fidelity-like graphics at Performance frame rates has been achieved for a broad set of titles, including Marvel's Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. We can see that PS5 Pro is close to doubling the power of PS5."

The PS5 Pro will launch on November 7, 2024, and is priced at $700. You can see all the confirmed PS5 Pro Enhanced games below, along with quotes from Cerny on their various enhancements.


Alan Wake 2


Assassin’s Creed: Shadows


The Crew Motorfest


The First Descendant


Demon’s Souls


Dragon’s Dogma 2


Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth


Gran Turismo 7


Mark Cerny:

"The faster hardware in PS5 Pro can make a real difference, allowing Gran Turismo 7 to add ray-traced reflections between the cars in gameplay while continuing to support their targeted 60fps."


Hogwarts Legacy


Mark Cerny:

"That boost in ray-tracing is also delivering big wins for Hogwarts Legacy, allowing for not only better reflections and a greater variety of reflective surfaces but also for further realism in the casting of shadows."


Horizon Forbidden West


Mark Cerny:

"The increase in raw GPU power has been especially effective for Horizon Forbidden West. Apart from the detail boost, that extra graphics power is allowing for improvements to lighting and visual effects, as well as to the hair and the skin in cinematics."


Marvel’s Spider-Man 2


Mark Cerny:

"We can see that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is noticeably higher-resolution throughout the scene, including the trees and procedural cars."


The Last of Us Part II Remastered


Mark Cerny:

"It has huge amounts of detail and targets a super-smooth 60fps."


Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart


Mark Cerny:

"Another way to compare the two consoles is to look at PS5 Pro versus Performance mode on PS5, both of which target 60fps. What we see here is a difference in detail; PS5 Pro is much sharper and crisper than PS5. For this, my favorite is the parade scene from Ratchet & Clank. Distant details are much clearer."
