A quick look at Spider-Man running on PS4 and PS5.
Spider-Man Remastered, a bonus only available in the Miles Morales Ultimate Edition, is available today alongside the new game. The remaster adds ray tracing to the existing game and upgrades many of its assets for PS5.
It also offers a performance mode which brings the framerate up to 60fps, from the standard 30fps in fidelity mode, and on PS4 / PS4 Pro.
So how do they all compare? IGN put together a neat video that quickly goes through a few cutscenes and gameplay moments right from the start of the game. The video mostly focuses on PS4 vs PS5 in fidelity mode, but we also see how they both compare to performance mode. .
The ray tracing in Spider-Man Remastered is immediately noticeable, especially when you look at the reflections in the glass windows and the puddles of water. The image is overall lighter compared to the original tinted PS4.
Apart from the sharper textures and the obvious benefits of ray tracing, the most interesting mode is actually performance. The visual makeup there is almost on par with the PS4 Pro quality level, with the obvious benefit of doubling the framerate. I would say the sacrifice is well worth it, but I can completely see a lot going into loyalty mode to see the game in all its glory.
Saving PS4 game files, in case you missed it, will also work on PS5. Insomniac is currently working on a fix to make this possible, available within the next two weeks.
