I'd love to see some tests and if that's a "raw" fps boost or perhaps, some problems that can result from framerate boosting are also addressed.
DS3 does run in 60fps on PS5 unpatched but unfortunately, the pop-in got so much worse and makes the game look terrible in larger open areas. I don't think PS5 has some issues with last-gen streaming tech, it's just that 60 fps makes pop-in way more noticeable than it is at 30. Same with TLOU2 60fps patch.
This subject got very little traction earlier here and on Reddit but it's true. Launch Dark Souls 3 on PS5 go run around Road of Sacrifices swamp and see for yourself.

Literally bought the game on PS5 to try out the 60fps mode and compare to the 30 on XSX when it was on sale a few months ago, no regrets. Put this shit on Switch so I can buy it again, pussies.

The game needs a resolution boost too. Not bad, but PS5 was the way to go in March when I tested both.

System wars trash post. Go crawl back into the hole you came from.

It WAS Sony. The game has been upgraded on PS5 since the console launched.
From's games capped at 60 even on PC, you can go higher with mods, but i doubt that some high level hacks can make the same without interfering with game's code.

He was literally responding to a guy who was poking fun at Sony fans for not having this. He got called out on it.

So insecure. Maybe you should follow the conversation next time. The person said Xbox is better when the fps boost is already available on PS5 since Day 1 lol
? This is just fps boost. MS is not giving a full DS3 remaster for free.
FPS boost on GOW, DS3, GOT, Days Gone etc are also free on PS5.

Fiiiiiinally. Only if bloodborne was on Xbox we could have it with FPS. boost. Lend you tech to Sony for this one game please.

This is the ONE thing I was hoping next gen consoles would offer us. FPS boosts to all previous gen games at no cost.
To say Xbox is doing an amazing job in this department is a gross understatement. I've enjoyed FPS boosts in Fallout 4 on Series S.
Made the game so much smoother to play and then I threw some mods on it too. Was like I was gaming on a PC again. Crazy shit.

You do realize Dark Souls 3 is already 60 on PS5, right?
But, I agree Bloodborne really needs a patch.

This one game meaning Bloodborne, not DS3.
Nope, Bloodborne is developed for 30 fps, it has physics and game logic tied to it. Lance McDonald made plenty of hacks to make it works as intended at 60 fps, just doubling framerate without interfering with game's code doesn't make it.

DS3 was about 45-50fps on Pro, and in some areas 60. It should be 60 on PS5 as any unlocked game does but never tried it.
it is 60. i played it with my roommate

That's not the answer I'm looking for dude.
This still confuses me. So if a game has a One X version, it'll use that and look better. But if it only has a S version, it'll use that one obviously.
So when FPS boost is turned on, it has to lower the resolution from what that quote is saying, right? That's what happens when I play the Sniper game.
Man I think it only shows yours that you took so much offense to that statement.

It DS3 bro what blasphemy is you saying.

This is what I've understood as well. And Sniper doesn't have it off by default, but somehow it doesn't look good. It defo doesn't look like a 1080p game to me. Or is it just bad AA?

I've checked Eurogamer and no mention of 1440x1080. Just says native 1080p. BUT.... They did say this:
Maybe coming from the Pro to this is what made it jarring to me.
Anyway. Now I understand. So I just have to see whether the fps boost setting is off or on by default to know if a game got a res drop or not.
Thanks.

The Xbox didn't get the same 60 fps option? That's lame. Glad they are getting it now.

"brand new technique"
It runs at that framerate on other platforms already so I'd love to hear the explanation for this one.

Either they blew their load on getting DS3 to work or they just announced this because it leaked earlier in the day.
My guess is there will be more added soon, because they just link to the BC games list in that URL rather than a unique article or the Major Nelson list of FPS boosted titles that typically come in a drop like this.
