Exploited consoles get 60fps Red Dead Redemption 2, DriveClub, Batman: Arkham Knight and many more.
I guess the question is, why didn’t PlayStation 5 get more 60fps upgrades for last-gen titles?
If illusion can do it, why can’t Sony and third-party publishers?
And often, developers had updated their development hardware to newer SDKs incompatible with their older games.
To make this happen would require buy-in from Sony, publishers and developers.
If that sounds extraordinarily impossible to achieve, well,illusion has already done it.
It won’t work for all titles, but it should work for many.
Other games would require a lot more work which does question their viability.
In terms of illusion’s mods, patches to DriveClub also required tweaks to support frame-rates higher than 30fps.
Any official performance upgrades would also need proper QA before release.
Other PS4 titles running on PS5 are already operating under compatibility restrictions.
One profile offers up base PS4 performance with a CPU boost.
The Last Guardian even has native 4K support (via the shipping 1890p checkerboard solution).
The icing on the cake?
