Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is experiencing significant performance and image quality issues on the PlayStation 5 Pro. Despite initial promises of technical improvements, including higher base resolutions and the use of ray-traced elements, the game suffers from severe image quality problems. In Performance Mode, the game exhibits flickering textures and a shimmering effect, particularly noticeable on foliage and other intricate patterns, which is attributed to the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaling technology. This technology, which uses AI to upscale game graphics, seems to be working incorrectly, resulting in a worse visual experience compared to the standard PS5 version. Quality Mode also faces issues such as lighting pop-up and missing lighting details. Electronic Arts (EA) has acknowledged these problems and is actively investigating the issues, though no estimated time for a fix has been provided. Similar technical issues are also reported in other PS5 Pro enhanced games like Silent Hill 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6[2][3][4] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

While the recent updates for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 have addressed several issues, some players are still experiencing problems, although these are not exclusively tied to the PS5 Pro. The main issues revolve around the Ghost perk, where some players are unable to equip it despite it being permanently unlocked, and in some cases, the perk does not function correctly, allowing players to be detected on enemy minimaps even when it is active. The November 15 update was intended to fix the Ghost perk issue, but some players continue to face this problem and have found workarounds such as restarting the game or reinstalling it[1][4][5].Additionally, the game has received a PS5 Pro Enhanced upgrade, which includes features like PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and native 120Hz support, improving performance and image quality for players on the PS5 Pro. However, the specific issues mentioned are more general and not isolated to the PS5 Pro[4][5].The developers have made a list of known issues publicly available to keep players informed and are continuously working on updates to resolve these problems[3].

There are ongoing discussions between Sony and Kadokawa, the parent company of FromSoftware, the renowned developers of games such as 'Elden Ring', 'Dark Souls', and 'Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice'. According to reports, Sony is in talks to acquire Kadokawa, a Japanese media powerhouse that operates in various areas including mass media, films, anime, publishing, and video games. This potential acquisition is part of Sony's strategy to expand its entertainment portfolio with strong IPs, given FromSoftware's significant success with titles like 'Elden Ring' and its expansive DLC 'Shadow of the Erdtree'[3][5].Sony already has a close relationship with FromSoftware, having collaborated on several projects including the exclusive titles 'Bloodborne' and 'Demon’s Souls'. Sony also owns a 2% stake in Kadokawa and a 69.66% stake in FromSoftware, which was acquired in 2022 to help the studio strengthen its capabilities and global publishing efforts[5].If the acquisition is successful, it could potentially lead to future FromSoftware games becoming exclusive to the PlayStation platform, although this remains speculative at this point. The deal could be signed in the coming weeks if negotiations proceed smoothly[2][4].Kadokawa, aside from owning FromSoftware, also owns other game development studios such as Acquire and Spike Chunsoft, which would further bolster Sony's gaming and anime empire[3].
