What PS4 games should benefit from a patchless PS5 bump?
- Thread starter jon bones
- Start date
Final Fantasy XV is on the PS+ collection list, so I'm assuming it'll receive PS5 patch of some kind.
Any game that has a dynamic resolution and/or an uncapped framerate should benefit. They should all benefit from the SSD too, but not as much as games designed specifically for it.
Few examples from https://www.resetera.com/threads/all-games-with-ps4-pro-enhancements.3101/
Attack on Titan 2
Runs at 2160g with 30-60fps [Framerate should become more stable]
Apex Legends
Dynamic 1440p (often drops) | 60fps (w/ some drops) [Should hold a higher framerate and resolution more consistently]
Battlefield 1
Battlefield V
Dynamic Resolution often capped at 1800 or 2160, targeting 60fps [Should hold a higher framerate and resolution more consistently]
Call of Duty Warzone
Dynamic 2160t, usually ~ 1528p | 60FPS [Should hold a higher resolution more consistently]
DOOM Eternal
Dynamic 1440p with drops | locked 60fps [Should hold a higher resolution more consistently]
Killing Floor 2
1800c | 50-60fps [Should hold a more stable framerate]
The Last of us Remastered
1800p | 60fps w/ drops [Should hold a more stable framerate]
Monster Hunter World
1800c | 30-45fps [Should hold a more stable framerate]
Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3
1620t | Variable framerate with drops [Should hold a more stable framerate]
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
1800t | 40-50fps [Should hold a more stable framerate]
Star Wars Battlefront II
Dynamic 1800p | 60fps [Should hold a higher resolution more consistently]
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2
Dynamic 1440p | locked 60fps [Should hold a higher resolution more consistently]

Wolfenstein: Youngblood
Dynamic 1440p | 55-60fps [Should hold a higher framerate and resolution more consistently]

Where were these mentioned in the OP? I didn't refer to any of these.
Doh! sorry. I was too eager to be cheeky and prove someone wrong.
Ignore me lol. I'll remove the quote from my post.
Only games with boost mode will benefit, we have no idea which ones those will be yet. The only games confirmed are GHOSTs of Tsushima, God of War III and those games in the PS+ collection.
The game which excites me the most in his regard would be playing call of duty black ops III zombies maps in splitscreen. The framerate gets *real* low on that title at times on the base PS4 which I have + I'm looking forward the resolution bump from the pro mode.

Can you at least say if we will notice a difference in unpatched games? =)

Emphasis on the word select. Hopefully it will be a large selection though - the number the games that need the reduced clocks of PS4/PS4 Pro in order to function should be quite limited with the way most modern games engines are architected.

My question is does "Select" means games patched to support it or simply games with uncapped framerates. Or maybe both?
Seeing improved framerates will be great, but with them hinting at PS5 support years ago, I always assumed it would get a native version pretty much at launch. Now it seems that won't be possible at all or they'd have to remove VR support because native PS5 games can't support VR. Kind of frustrating.
I expect it just means games that were able to run with PS5 clock speeds without exhibing any errors. It's just that only games with DRS or uncapped framerates (or didn't hit their original framerate targets) will benefit from increased resolution/performance because of this. However a game like TLOU which hit its performance goals whilst not having increased resolution or perf (that we know of unless PS5 patch adds additional options) will still benefit from game boost as the additional CPU clocks will allow for faster asset loading and decreased load times - even if the visuals and framerate are unchanged from PS4Pro.
"Games with boost mode" implies...that the game has a mode. That's not what boost mode is.
Whatever games got patched for Pro, I expect those resolution targets hitting their gap and hitting 60fps. No real reason why they will not. Series X is just using basic One X versions and maxing it, so unpatched to use the PS5 features, games with unlocked framerates will max out (Unless the game has major issues like ARK.)
I don't see Sony patching it on a game by game basis, unless its a 1st party title. The onus will be on the dev to go back and upgrade if they want it.

Good point. I was using the terminology of the PS4Pro where boost mode was a feature enabled at the OS level. Whereas it seems like game boost will be the same thing, but automatically turned on where applicable on a per-game basis.
No need - native PS5 Hitman 3 client include 1&2 within it.
Not sad at all! I have it for free for PS4 via Verizon.
This is a GREAT one. A game I forgot about, never played due to technical issues that should get fixed easily on PS5.
Thanks!
Not talking about online. Local play in SFV, Tekken 7, DBFZ still takes way longer than it should.
For sure.
SFV on PC SSD isn't too bad but I don't have anyone to play with locally anyway. :/

Summarizing other people comments and mine inputs from the other related thread: https://www.resetera.com/threads/wh...nt-wait-to-play-smoothly-on-next-gen-consoles
Games with Dynamic Resolution (DSR) should look better.
Many FPS-games tend to have DSR such as Titanfall 2.
All games with PS4 Pro enhancements thread:
https://www.resetera.com/threads/all-games-with-ps4-pro-enhancements.3101/
Games using CBR (Checkerboard Rendering) have their resolutions listed as e.g. 2160c or CBR. Standard rendering is listed as e.g. 2160p.
Two other methods are listed: temporal accumulation types similar to CBR as e.g. 2160t, and geometry rendering--where only polygons are more detailed and textures are unimproved--as e.g. 2160g. (Note that neither CBR nor any others of these are types of upscaling. Additional upscaling to 4K is still necessary if the resolution is below 2160.)
Some unpatched games that will run in 60 or close to 60 fps on PS5:
Bold = extra heavy titles that may or may not reach 60fps on PS5
TBC = To Be Confirmed (on PS5)
PS4 = PS4 Pro

We know which games work on PS5 and which don't. But we have no information whatsoever which of those working games is using native mode/boost mode. Even then you are limited to whatever their upper limit of the dynamic resolution was. More often than not games were 1440p on Pro and thus don't expect native 4K, because there is a artificial limit.
Is this confirmed? FF7R is getting a ps5 patch? Will it achieve 60 fps?
