Upgraded PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Expands to Major Titles PlayStation has announced the rollout of an enhanced version of its PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology to a growing list of titles, including Silent Hill f, Monster Hunter Wilds, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Crimson Desert, and others. The update, part of a broader PS5 system software upgrade, aims to improve image stability, clarity in fine details, and consistent performance across supported games on the PS5 Pro. PSSR is an AI-driven upscaling tool that analyzes each frame individually to enhance visual quality while maintaining smooth performance. The latest iteration of the technology offers more precise image reconstruction, better motion stability, and greater flexibility for developers to balance graphical fidelity with performance. This upgrade is already being integrated into several titles, with developers sharing their insights on the improvements. Konami Digital Entertainment highlighted that Silent Hill f now benefits from the new PSSR, delivering smoother gameplay and sharper details such as grass movement and shadow rendering. The team emphasized how the upgrade deepens immersion in the game’s foggy, 1960s-inspired setting. Similarly, Dragon Age: The Veilguard saw enhancements in image quality without compromising frame rates, according to BioWare’s technical director. Remedy Entertainment noted that Control and Alan Wake 2 now leverage the upgraded PSSR to improve motion clarity and image stability. The technology allows for efficient stochastic sampling while preserving visual consistency, particularly during dynamic gameplay sequences. Ninja Theory also adopted the update for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, praising the enhanced particle effects and overall visual refinement.#playstation #konami_digital_entertainment #bioware #remedy_entertainment #ninja_theory
Rocket League Receives Major Update with v2.66 Patch Rocket League players can now access the v2.66 patch, set for release on March 10, 2026, across platforms including Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. The update introduces a range of new features, adjustments, and bug fixes aimed at improving gameplay, customization, and overall player experience. A key addition is the return of playlist population numbers, allowing players to view real-time data on queue sizes before joining a match. This feature is now visible in the Play Menu, with specific numbers displayed when hovering over a mode and a total player count shown for Rocket League. The update also enhances visibility of matchmaking ratings (MMR) in competitive playlists, enabling players to track their rankings on scoreboards and playlist tiles. Casual playlists remain unaffected by this change. The patch introduces a flip reset indicator, a visual and audio cue signaling when a player regains their dodge by touching the ball with three or more wheels. Players can disable this feature in settings, which also turns off the effect during spectator mode. Boost mechanics receive a visual upgrade, with large boost pads now displaying a recharge timer to help players strategize. The timer shows a gradual refill over 10 seconds before the pad is fully recharged. Custom training settings have been expanded to offer more dynamic scenarios. New randomization options allow players to adjust ball speed, spawn locations, and vehicle positions, creating unpredictable challenges for refining mechanics. Settings for these adjustments are accessible through the Custom Training menu after selecting a pack.#steam #playstation #rocket_league #epic_games_store #xbox
Marathon Error Codes and Fixes: Troubleshooting Common Issues Marathon error codes are bound to pop up, whether from server issues and maintenance on Bungie's end or disconnects on your end. These errors can disrupt gameplay during high-stakes extraction runs, so resolving them quickly is essential to avoid losing gear or understanding the root cause. Here’s a breakdown of common error codes and potential solutions to address them. Basic troubleshooting steps often resolve many Marathon errors. Restarting the game, checking Bungie’s server status, and ensuring your internet connection is stable are initial steps. If issues persist, updating your console’s software or PC operating system and GPU drivers can help. A wired Ethernet connection is also recommended for improved stability. If these steps fail, creating a detailed thread in Bungie’s Help forum with the specific error code can provide further guidance. Error code "basil" typically indicates a basic disconnect. Logging back in and checking for server maintenance or maintenance schedules is advised. If the issue persists, submitting a forum thread with the error code may help. Error code "broccoli" is linked to GPU detection issues on PC. Ensuring your OS and GPU drivers are up to date, and verifying the GPU is properly installed, can resolve this. Error code "ginger" occurs when a teammate disconnects during matchmaking, preventing a full team from joining. While the disconnected player may have their own error, it generally doesn’t affect your end unless the issue recurs. Error code "paprika" is similar to "basil," requiring a login attempt and checking for maintenance. Posting a forum thread is recommended if the error persists, especially with numeric codes. Error code "marmot" arises from corrupted game files.#steam #marathon #bungie #help_forum #playstation
GTA 6 Pre-Orders Rumored to Launch Soon Amid Speculation A tweet from a well-known PlayStation leaker has sparked widespread speculation about the potential release of Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders. While no official confirmation has been made, the rumor mill has already begun churning with theories about when players might be able to reserve copies of the highly anticipated game. The leaker, whose account is known for accurate predictions, recently added title IDs for GTA VI to the PlayStation database, suggesting that news about the game could be imminent—and possibly pre-orders could follow shortly after. The leaker’s post, shared on X, warns that the addition of title IDs to the PlayStation database is a strong indicator that Rockstar Games is preparing to announce major updates about the game. While the post stops short of confirming any details, it has been cited as a reliable source by other media outlets, lending credibility to the speculation. The timing of this development has raised questions about how close the game might be to its long-awaited release. As a reference point, pre-orders for Red Dead Redemption 2 launched six months before its 2018 release date. However, GTA VI’s development has faced multiple delays, with its current release window set for November 19, 2026. Some analysts speculate that Rockstar may be eager to provide players with pre-order options as soon as possible, given the game’s extended development cycle. A commenter on the leaker’s post asked about the potential timeline for pre-orders, prompting the leaker to respond that the duration depends on the publisher. While the answer lacks specifics, it suggests that pre-orders might not be far off.#red_dead_redemption_2 #playstation #rockstar_games #take_two_interactive #gta_vi
