QSSR brings AI upscaling to the base PS5

Marvel’s Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei were scheduled to add QSSR as an optional graphics setting on PS5 on October 1.

In an announcement on October 1, 2026, Sony said Quick Spectral Super Resolution (QSSR) brings AI upscaling to the base PS5, with Marvel’s Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei named as its first games. Both were scheduled to receive patches adding QSSR as an additional graphics option on October 1, 2026.

The new feature uses a streamlined neural network and a hand-tuned implementation to improve image detail and stability on PS5. Sony developed it with AMD through Project Amethyst. The PlayStation Blog announcement says QSSR will be offered broadly to PlayStation developers.

QSSR can serve as a drop-in replacement in titles that already support PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR).

Developers may still need a few days to tune their games for QSSR.
