Updated PSSR for PS5 Pro
Our fantastic rendering team has upgraded the PSSR support in Saros to the new version of the PSSR upscaler that was released in March. This update provides an even sharper image; you can barely tell it apart from native 4K as you explore Carcosa. Since 1995, our goal at Housemarque has been to push the hardware, and with Saros we continue this drive thanks to this PSSR update.
Increased Base Render Resolution on PS5 Pro
Seppo Halonen, our technical director at Housemarque, wanted to share more specificity on how we have increased our base render resolution for Saros on PS5 Pro.
“On PlayStation 5 Pro we also increased our base render resolution, which is the resolution before upscaling. This means on PS5 Pro, you will have an even clearer higher resolution image at 60 fps. While we use dynamic resolution to ensure stable frame rate even in the middle of hectic combat, PS5 Pro always delivers a sharper image in a scene-to-scene comparison.
Saros on PS5 already looks incredible and runs at rock solid 60fps, but for PS5 Pro we push our graphics even further. Furthermore, there are many small adjustments in reflections and overall quality, ensuring that the increase is not only more pixels, but also the content we render scales up to match. The only place where we switch to 30fps is in key story cinematics where we go quality over quantity and render the high quality characters, lighting and postprocessing at peak resolution – which again is higher on PS5 Pro.”

Advanced weaponry with adaptive triggers
Similarly we wanted to take things to the next level with how we use the DualSense wireless controller’s adaptive triggers in Saros. When using the adaptive trigger on L2, if you pull it half way down you will activate your main weapon’s alt fire. This allows for alternative attacks, ranging from grenade launchers, slower-firing heavy rounds, ricochet projectiles and much more. If you pull the L2 adaptive trigger all the way down, you will activate your Eclipse driven Power Weapon. This allows you to hit back hard using collected projectiles from your Soltari Shield. These options elevate the rhythm and flow of combat, making the action of Saros even more thrilling.
