\"Silent<\/a><\/p>\n

Silent Hill 2<\/a> is an awesome game, but its PS5 Pro implementation was noted as an early lowpoint for Sony\u2019s pricey platform.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s since massively improved its proprietary upscaler PSSR<\/a>, and the supercharged system is regularly turning in outstanding results as a consequence.<\/p>\n

And now a new 6GB patch for the Bloober Team developed remake has attempted to clean up the issues.<\/p>\n

The good news? Image quality is massively improved across the board, with PlayStation\u2019s updated upscaler working exactly as architect Mark Cerny intended.<\/p>\n

The bad news? Various reports on forums like ResetEra<\/a> claim the shadows have been broken in Performance Mode, resulting in crushed blacks and ugly dark areas.<\/p>\n

Looking at the screenshots<\/a>, these issues aren\u2019t present when playing in Quality Mode, but obviously that limits the frame rate to 30fps, which isn\u2019t ideal.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not entirely sure how a bug like this makes it through, as Konami has taken its sweet time working on this, and it\u2019s only had to optimise for one platform here.<\/p>\n

Hopefully a fix in the works to finally whip this excellent remake into shape.<\/p>\n
