PS5 Pro Sets the Benchmark for Resident Evil Requiem’s Visual Mastery

Digital Foundry’s verdict is that Resident Evil Requiem looks stunning on all modern consoles, but the PS5 Pro version delivers the definitive experience thanks to near-native 4K visuals achieved via temporal upscaling, robust ray tracing, and the game’s hair strand tech; base PS5/Xbox Series X are similar with slightly lower image quality, Series S drops hair work and runs at a lower resolution, and the 120Hz mode disables RT/upscaling, highlighting Pro as the standout choice.

Switch 2 fills the roster with Fever, upgrades, and a robust third‑party push

Nintendo’s Switch 2 is filling its lineup with a steady cadence of smaller releases and hardware-upgrade updates to bridge the gap until the big franchises arrive.

Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa says these updates are key during the Switch 2 transition, so the platform will rely less on blockbuster releases and more on a steady, upgrade‑driven lineup.
