Capcom Excited About Testing Possibilities of PS5 Pro GPU

Expert Verified By

Is the PS5 Pro a Game-Changer for Capcom?

Story Highlight
  • Monster Hunter’s developer believes the PS5 Pro will offer new opportunities for their games, particularly in graphics and lighting effects.
  • Capcom recently confirmed that Dragon’s Dogma 2 is making its way to PS5 Pro.
  • Their new game engine, RE neXt, is expected to benefit from the console’s powerful hardware.

Capcom is thrilled about the new PlayStation 5 Pro and its powerful hardware, especially its improved graphics performance. In a recent interview, Monster Hunter’s developer mentioned that the PS5 Pro’s upgrades, particularly in graphics and lighting effects, will create exciting new opportunities for their games.

This matches what many in the industry are expecting, as the PS5 Pro is set to offer a noticeable performance boost compared to the original PS5.

Why it matters: Although consumers are reacting negatively to PS5 Pro, developers appear excited to test the enhanced console’s potential.

Dragon's Dogma 2 Capcom
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is Capcom’s first title confirmed to be launching on PS5 Pro.

With Sony’s support, Capcom is looking into ways to improve its games for the PS5 Pro. In a recent interview, Ryozo Tsujimoto shared his team’s excitement about the PS5 Pro’s improved power.

It’s [PS5 Pro] an extra thing to think about as part of the development process, but we’re excited about the possibilities.

-Ryozo Tsujimoto, Capcom DeV

The team is eager to discover how this performance boost will help them develop games, particularly with titles like Dragon’s Dogma 2, which will take advantage of the PS5 Pro’s features.

PS5 Pro features a GPU that is 45% faster than the regular PS5, with improved ray tracing that could be 2 to 4 times better in certain games. This is helpful for developers like Capcom, whose games depend on high-quality graphics.

PS5 Pro Pricing Is Absurd
For an average consumer, the PS5 Pro’s pricing is absurd.

Currently, Capcom is developing a new game engine called RE neXt, which should benefit from the PS5 Pro’s powerful hardware. While they haven’t confirmed that all upcoming games will support the PS5 Pro, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is definitely one that will.

Other possible games, like Monster Hunter Wilds, might also run better on the console, but Capcom is still checking compatibility for future titles. In another interview, Tsujimoto mentioned that the team is still checking if Monster Hunter Wilds will work with the PS5 Pro.

However, the studio is fully optimistic and excited about using the new hardware for their upcoming titles.
