Hello there! I was just wondering if Overwatch will be optimized for the PS5 as it did with the new Xbox? And if so, does someone know when?
Short answer: Probably not
Long answer: XBS recompatibility made it simple to update the game with a simple patch, the way ps5 works seems to requiere a full native port of the game to get it to work at 120 fps, which takes a lot more time

Oh. Damn, that’s sad to hear. Thanks for your time providing this information tho.

It will probably be here before OverWatch 2 but not too much earlier than OverWatch 2… If that makes sense.
What about just to get it to run at 60 frames per second 4K?
It’s already is at 60 frames.
I think he meant at 4k since ps4 only goes up to 1080p
I’m not sure, depends if on the other games can do it
Like, for example, if god of war to put anything, if it can run at 4k on ps5 then probably on overwatch as well, since i think it only upscales it (?) (Don’t @ me)
GoW ps5 update is 4k 60fps. Smooth as butter. Same as Ghosts of Tsushima.

I don’t know myself but I heard it needs to be optimized before it can run on 4K and 120 FPS just like they did on the new Xbox.
I hope PS5 players get a buff soon. The balance has shifted towards xbox powercreep and I don’t want that meta to go on for too long, even though I’m a loser who should probably be shot on sight for still playing on Xbone
I’d assume those were both re-releases of the software to support it, but that kind of investment is a lot more frugal for single-player games that emphasize graphical quality. Sony might have even directly funded those updates as an appeal for console sales, since they’re Playstation exclusives.
