Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) announced that the PS5 will further expand its lineup of games supporting Quick Spectral Super Resolution (QSSR) technology, adding titles such as Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Control: Resonance, ARC Raiders, THE FINALS, No Man's Sky, and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam.
QSSR is an AI-based image upscaling technology for the standard PS5, corresponding to the PS5 Pro's Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), designed to enhance game resolution and clarity through artificial intelligence. With this update, more PS5 games will be able to use this technology to improve their visual performance.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2
Mike Fitzgerald, Technical Director at Insomniac Games, stated: "We successfully integrated [Quick Spectral Super Resolution] technology into Marvel's Wolverine with significant results, so our team decided to bring it to Marvel's Spider-Man 2 as well, and the update is now live! We are very excited for players to return to this 2023 title and experience the exciting improvements in image stability and clarity offered by [Quick Spectral Super Resolution] in both Fidelity Mode and Performance Mode."
Control: Resonance
Remedy will bring Quick Spectral Super Resolution technology to Control: Resonance on PS5, significantly improving image stability and detail representation.
Erik Jansson, Senior Graphics Programmer at Remedy, stated: "It's great to see PlayStation achieve the same leap on the PS5 as PSSR on the PS5 Pro. QSSR brings a more stable and refined image to Control: Resonance, and we worked closely with Sony to ensure this feature would be available in the December update."
ARC Raiders and THE FINALS
Mikael Linderholm, Technical Art Director at Embark Studios, stated: "With the new [Quick Spectral Super Resolution (QSSR)] technology coming to ARC Raiders and THE FINALS, we will bring higher clarity, better ambient lighting, and overall visual improvements to more PlayStation players. We are thrilledto see Sony's continued investment in PlayStation technology translate into tangible improvements enjoyed by all players, bringing a more immersive gaming experience to the entire PlayStation ecosystem."
No Man's Sky
Sean Murray, founder of Hello Games, stated: " No Man's Sky offers players an infinite procedurally generated universe to explore. When every star in the night sky is a real solar system that players can visit, we place great importance on the quality of every pixel."
"The team has always been passionate about pushing technical limits on the PlayStation platform. [Quick Spectral Super Resolution] allows us to render the game world with clearer, cleaner, and more exquisite details while providing the highest possible frame rate. Stay tuned for the launch of this technology in the coming weeks."
"This is another step towards making the world of No Man's Sky more immersive and worth exploring."
Hell Let Loose: Vietnam

We can't wait for PlayStation players to experience this change."
