Sony and AMD Want To Get FSR 4 On PS5 Pro By 2026

Sony will give the PS5 Pro crisper graphics — by backporting FSR 4
Many new PS5 Pro games already use an AI upscaler called “PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution” (PSSR) on their AMD-based chips. PSSR can turn 720p images into 4K ones on the fly while adding extra particle effects, and we’ve been relatively impressed by its quality compared to, say, FSR 3.
PlayStation's Mark Cerny says a version of FSR 4 could be implemented on the PS5 Pro
AMD just debuted its new FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR 4) upscaling tech on the latest Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 Ti GPUs, and it sounds like it might not be limited PCs. According to a new Digital Foundry interview with Mark Cerny,
PS5 Pro games will soon get something 'very similar' to FSR 4 for what Sony is calling 'the next evolution of PSSR'
PlayStation's lead console architect Mark Cerny has said PS5 Pro games will soon feature "something very similar" to FSR 4.
PlayStation Lead Architect Confirms AMD FSR 4 Is Coming To PS5 Pro
Sony's PlayStation 5 Pro is a mid-lifecycle upgrade for the aging PlayStation 5 (non-Pro), but it may have some important features added soon. Sony has worked closely with AMD on its graphics technology that powers its PS5 consoles,
Mark Cerny: FSR 4 for PS5 Pro is the "next evolution of PSSR"
Based on prior interviews, the Amethyst project is understood to be an extensive venture - one that looks set to extend beyond the lifespan of PS5 Pro, presumably into the next generation console era. It looks like we should expect more convergence in design, as opposed to the Pro's custom ML solution, designed by Sony itself.
PlayStation plans to update the PS5 Pro with FSR 4-like technology in the near future
While the PS5 Pro uses PSSR, PlayStation plans to level-up that technology with something closer to AMD's FSR 4 next year.
PS5 Pro's PSSR to Be Upgraded with FSR 4-Like Tech in 2026
PS5 lead architect Mark Cerny has shared that the PS5 Pro system will receive an upgrade to its PSSR feature next year that should allow it to produce similar results to the FSR 4 upscaling technology from AMD.
Something ‘very similar’ to FSR 4 is coming to PS5 Pro in 2026
“Our target is to have something very similar to FSR 4’s upscaler available on PS5 Pro for 2026 titles as the next evolution of PSSR; it should take the same inputs and produce essentially the same outputs. Doing that implementation is rather ambitious and time-consuming, which is why you haven’t already seen this new upscaler on PS5 Pro.”
AMD's New Upscaling Tech Could Give The PS5 Pro A Much-Needed Extra Boost In 2026
The PS5 Pro could be getting similar tech to AMD’s new version of FSR next year. AMD released the next generation of their graphics cards, the Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT, last week. They’re built around their new RDNA 4 architecture, which includes hardware support for a new version of FidelityFX Super Resolution, called FSR 4.
Sony confirms AMD's FSR 4 is coming to PlayStation in 2026
Sony's Mark Cerny has confirmed that AMD's new FSR 4 technology will be coming to PlayStation in 2026 as an update to its PSSR technology.
The PS5 Pro will soon get an AMD-powered performance boost
Sony is set to enhance the PlayStation 5 Pro ‘s visual performance by integrating AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR 4) upscaling technology. This advancement stems from a collaboration between Sony and AMD, known as Project Amethyst, aiming to elevate the console’s graphical fidelity.
