Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the first game to get PlayStation’s QSSR upscaling on standard PS5, and the update is live now. Sony confirmed the feature for six PS5 games on November 13, 2026, with No Man’s Sky, The Finals, ARC Raiders, Control Resonant and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam lined up behind it.
Insomniac Games says QSSR improves image stability and sharpness in both Fidelity and Performance modes, after seeing how it performed in Marvel’s Wolverine.
QSSR (Quick Spectral Super Resolution) is Sony’s AI-guided upscaling for regular PS5 hardware, built on the same foundation as PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution on PS5 Pro and sharing its settings interface. PlayStation says it grew out of Project Amethyst, its ongoing collaboration with AMD.
Remedy says Control Resonant gets it in an update coming in December. Hello Games founder Sean Murray said to “look for it in the next few weeks” for No Man’s Sky. Embark Studios said The Finals and ARC Raiders are next, and Expression Games is adding it to Hell Let Loose: Vietnam in an upcoming update.
For PS5 owners this is the PS5 Pro’s upscaling feature arriving on standard hardware, one patch at a time.
What Sony has not said: which games follow these six, whether QSSR is planned for PC or Xbox, and the exact dates outside December. Developers are still coming forward, and PlayStation says more titles will land in the coming months.
