PS5 Pro Issues Hit Silent Hill 2, Call of Duty, and More

The PlayStation 5 Pro launched recently but is facing multiple performance issues with several high-profile games, including Silent Hill 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Gamers have reported a distracting shimmering or flickering effect, particularly with the remake of Silent Hill 2, leading to a lack of developer response from Bloober Team and Konami. Users on platforms like Reddit have expressed frustration over the graphical problems, which seem to affect more than just one title. Complaints about image quality have also been noted for other games, with Digital Foundry remarking on severe issues in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, leading to a cautionary stance for potential buyers considering the $700 console. Although the PS5 Pro aims to deliver enhanced graphics and performance for over 50 titles, gamers are urged to weigh the upgrade carefully against these reported concerns.

Several games are experiencing performance issues on the PS5 Pro, including Silent Hill 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, with complaints mainly revolving around graphical problems like shimmering and flickering.

Silent Hill 2, originally released in 2001, is revered in the survival horror genre and has gained a cult following. The recent remake aimed to modernize this classic but has been met with complaints about its graphical fidelity on the new PS5 Pro. As the game navigates nostalgic waters, the technical problems encountered present significant hurdles for both players and developers seeking to preserve the atmosphere that made the original a landmark title in gaming history.
