PS5 Pro loses to the base PS5: Digital Foundry discovers a strange issue in Castlevania
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Castlevania: Belmont's Curse looks worse on the PS5 Pro than on the standard PS5 and Xbox Series X: Digital Foundry specialists discovered that the game runs at 1080p resolution on Sony's high-performance console.
Konami released such a flawed version of Castlevania: Belmont's Curse for the PS5 Pro that the difference in image quality feels almost insulting to owners of the more expensive console. The game looks noticeably worse not only than the Xbox Series X version, but even compared to the standard PS5.
The issue was highlighted by Digital Foundry specialists. According to them, the visual shortcomings are noticeable even in the demo version, which anyone can download for free from the PS Store. Graphical problems greet players even before buying the full game.
What exactly happened? Digital Foundry journalists found that on the PS5 Pro, the game runs at 1080p resolution instead of the expected 4K.
On the PS5 Pro, it is plain 1080p, not 4K. This means the game is broken on the PS5 Pro. The game received an “anti-PS5 Pro” patch, and that shouldn't be the case.
Castlevania: Belmont's Curse was released on October 15. Since then, the visual situation on the PS5 Pro has remained unchanged. Over recent weeks, the developers have pushed several updates, but none of them resolved the problem. As a result, owners of Sony's most powerful console continue to receive a worse picture than users of the base PS5.
