DOOM: The Dark Ages<\/a> will soon receive its big DLC, Revelations<\/a>, and alongside it will come a free update for the game as a whole.<\/p>\n

On 7th July 2026, the first-person shooter will receive a major update, and a major part of that will be support for PS5 Pro’s upgraded PSSR tech.<\/p>\n

Developer id Software says it’s helped them achieve “the cleanest image we can deliver on the platform.”<\/p>\n

“The Doom Slayer moves fast, and that is exactly why image reconstruction matters. A still screenshot can show sharp armor edges, icy cliff faces, weapon silhouettes and distant demons, but the real test is what happens when the player is sprinting, turning, parrying, Shield-Sawing and filling the screen with particles. PSSR uses machine learning reconstruction to build a higher quality image from the frame idTech8 renders, using information such as motion, depth, exposure and sub-pixel sampling to keep the final picture sharper and more stable.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On the PS Blog<\/a>, id’s Billy Khan says The Dark Ages massively benefits from the enhanced PSSR upscaler because of how fast-paced and densely detailed the game is.<\/p>\n

“The difference is especially noticeable in wide combat arenas,” he writes. “Distant enemies and environmental edges stay easier to read, while surfaces keep more of their texture definition. In close-ups, characters and weapons look more resolved. During effects-heavy moments, bright particles and lighting remain less distracting because the underlying image is crisper.”<\/p>\n

So, PS5 Pro users planning on playing Revelations next month can do so with enhanced visual clarity, which is pretty nice.<\/p>\n
