Ghost of Yotei Impresses on Standard PS5 in Graphics Comparison With PS5 Pro

Expert Verified By

Sucker Punch Has Outdone Itself!

Story Highlight
  • Sucker Punch has done a great job optimizing Ghost of Yotei for the PS5 and PS5 Pro.
  • The title shows very similar graphics performance on both consoles.
  • PS5 Pro has a slight edge as it offers a Ray Tracing Mode with 60 FPS support.

Sucker Punch has done it once again with Ghost of Yotei as the game has managed to impress the critics. It has garnered a decent score of 87 on Metacritic, with universal praise, and the performance is also excellent on the PS5. 

Testing shows that Ghost of Yotei is impressive even on the base PS5 when compared to the PS5 Pro. The graphical fidelity as well as the performance are pretty similar on both consoles, showcasing impressive optimization. 

Why it matters: This is an excellent demonstration of how modern consoles aren’t the problem, but game optimization is. Studios often leave out the most essential part, which leads to criticism of the hardware as well. 

ElAnalistaDeBits has released a detailed video showcasing the difference in Ghost of Yotei between the PS5 and PS5 Pro. The base console has three different modes, while the Pro has four due to its extra power. 

Nonetheless, in Quality Mode, both offer a solid 30 FPS experience at 4K native resolution. In Performance Mode, the PS5 renders at 1440p or 1080p, compared to the Pro’s 1800p or 1440p at 60 FPS. However, the difference in quality is quite subtle. 

Ghost of Yotei
Ghost of Yotei has brilliant performance and graphics even on the base PS5.

Both consoles also offer a Ray Tracing mode that runs at 30 FPS, and again, the results are very similar. One area where the PS5 Pro surpasses the base model is its inclusion of a Ray Tracing Pro Mode, which supports 60 FPS. 

PS5 does have very minor frame drops. But they are hardly noticeable. All in all, the performance and visual fidelity on both consoles are super impressive, showcasing how Unreal Engine 5 is the real thing holding development back.
