Remedy shared its process in upgrading Alan Wake 2 for the PS5 Pro, explaining that increasing the rendering resolution was among the easiest routes to improve image quality. It also experimented by upgrading the 60fps Performance mode output from 1440p to 4k and adding PSSR, which "positively impacted image crispness and stability under motion."

When Alan Wake 2 was released in October of last year, it didn't feature ray tracing. That's about to change when the PS5 Pro is released. Players can expect ray tracing in Alan Wake 2's Quality Mode on the PS5 Pro, which enables ray-traced reflections on opaque and transparent surfaces.

Remedy has detailed the sort of technical enhancements future PS5 Pro owners can look forward to when playing Alan Wake 2 on Sony's upgraded console. The game will retain the same Performance and Quality modes available on base PS5 systems,
