Marathon

Extra Information

Disclaimer: Marathon uses PSSR1 natively, so this page still displays PSSR1 metrics. However, as of September 26, the 'Enhance PSSR Image Quality' toggle (which forces PSSR2 upscaling) is activated by default. PSSR2 was made the default because it resolves a sharper, more stable image and removes PSSR1's film grain-like noise. If you experience image quality issues though, deactivate the toggle in PS5 system settings to see if PSSR1 produces better results.

Pro has improved ambient occlusion and higher resolution reflections compared to base PS5. While Pro can also use CMAA and FSR for resolution scaling, PSSR resolves the sharpest/most stable image. PSSR also provides the most stable 60fps, although there's only ever short-lived 1-5fps drops regardless of upscaler used. Base PS5 can use either CMAA or FSR with similar image stability/framerate results.
