What the setting does—and what it does not do
The option applies to PS5 Pro games that support PSSR; it does not add the feature to every game. PlayStation describes PSSR as improving image stability and clarity in fine details, but says results vary by title. Check the current official PS5 Pro game list for examples and support updates. Its listed Enhanced PSSR titles include Resident Evil Requiem, SILENT HILL f, SILENT HILL 2, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Alan Wake 2, Control, Monster Hunter Wilds, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Nioh 3, Rise of the Ronin, Crimson Desert, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and Cyberpunk 2077; the list can change as titles receive support.

Compare the setting in a supported game
To judge the effect for yourself, compare the same scene in a supported game with the option on and off. Look for image stability during motion, clarity in fine details, and unexpected visual effects. A change may be more noticeable in one game than another, so do not assume the same result across the library.

Turn PSSR image enhancement off
Return to Settings > Screen and Video > Video Output > Enhance PSSR Image Quality and disable the option. PlayStation recommends turning it off if a supported game produces unexpected visual effects on a monitor or another display. Mark Cerny, PS5 and PS5 Pro lead architect, announced that an upgraded version of PSSR would roll out globally to PS5 Pro players; Sony’s guidance is to disable the option if visual effects are unexpected. Read the PlayStation Blog announcement dated March 16, 2026 for details.
