Spider-Man 2 Gets QSSR on Base PS5 as Five More Games Line Up Support
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has received QSSR support on base PlayStation 5 consoles, with five other games set to adopt Sony’s AI upscaling technology. According to IGN’s November 13 report, Sony outlined the expanded lineup in a PlayStation Blog post featuring comments from the developers involved.
The additions cover Spider-Man 2, Control Resonant, Arc Raiders, The Finals, No Man’s Sky and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam. Their update schedules differ, with some release windows still unannounced.
What is available, and what comes next
Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2 update is already live. In comments reproduced by IGN, head of technology Mike Fitzgerald said QSSR brings image stability and sharpness benefits to both Fidelity and Performance modes. He also said the studio brought the technology to its 2023 game after integrating it into Marvel’s Wolverine.
Remedy’s Control Resonant update is scheduled for December, with the developer describing improvements to image stability and fine detail. Hello Games expects No Man’s Sky to receive its update within the next few weeks, relative to the November 13 report.
No specific update dates were announced for Arc Raiders, The Finals or Hell Let Loose: Vietnam. Embark said its two games would gain sharper imagery and clearer environments.
Developer claims set expectations
QSSR stands for Quick Spectral Super Resolution. IGN reports that Sony introduced it in October, when Marvel’s Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei were already using it.
The practical takeaway for base PS5 owners is that availability depends on each game’s update. The visual benefits described here are developer claims; the supplied report provides no independent measurements or quantified performance gains. Sony also indicated that further games would receive support in the coming months, without naming them.
