The latest Assassin’s Creed Mirage update has just landed, bringing with it improvements specifically optimized for the very recent PS5 Pro.
Although this patch is not accessible to all players, those who were lucky enough to obtain the PS5 Pro will be able to enjoy an enhanced visual and technical experience, thus meeting the growing expectations of the community.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage gets better on PS5 Pro
In a context where Ubisoft is doing everything possible to regain its position on the market with ambitious projects like Assassin’s Creed Shadowsthe French publisher shows its desire to keep its other titles up to date. The disappointment around Star Wars Outlaws has visibly strengthened this strategy, pushing Ubisoft to perfect each part of its flagship franchises. So, Assassin’s Creed Mirage today receives a patch designed to exploit the capabilities of the PS5 Pro, capitalizing on the technical potential of this next generation console.
PS5 Pro hardware-specific optimizations
This update takes advantage of Sony’s PSRR (PlayStation Super Resolution Rendering) upscaling technology. Thanks to this advanced algorithm, the game now delivers sharper 4K visuals while maintaining a constant 60 FPS refresh rate, an ideal combination for gamers who want a smooth and detailed experience. The improvements don’t stop there: Ubisoft Bordeaux, in charge of this patch, has worked on various graphic aspects to enrich realism and immersion.
Here are the main new features that this update brings for owners of the PS5 Pro:
- 4K visuals at 60 FPS : Thanks to PSRR, gamers enjoy more detailed 4K graphics with a rate of 60 frames per second, providing an experience that is both smooth and visually striking.
- Quality mode defaults to 60 FPS : Unlike the standard version on PS5, where Quality Mode caps at 30 FPS, the PS5 Pro allows you to enjoy 60 FPS, even in high graphics quality modes.
- Display and texture improvements : This patch introduces increased fidelity of textures, shadows and reflections, as well as improved draw distance. These optimizations allow players to see more details, even on distant objects, which enhances the overall quality of the scenery and immersion in the world of Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
These improvements should allow the game to compete with the latest productions in terms of graphic realism, but we will have to wait for detailed analyzes to judge their real visual impact. Ubisoft has, for the moment, only published a short video on Twitter, without revealing more in-depth comparisons.
An update that marks a turning point for Ubisoft?
With the release of this patch, Ubisoft seems clearly committed to maximizing the performance of its existing titles. This update perhaps marks the start of a new dynamic where the publisher could focus more on optimizations for the latest generation consoles, starting with the PS5 Pro. Ubisoft continues to demonstrate its determination to offer an impeccable gaming experience, even for games already released, by aligning with the capabilities of new platforms.
The rest of the upcoming improvements for Assassin’s Creed Mirage could indicate an even more ambitious future for the publisher. Between the expected launch ofAssassin’s Creed Shadows and the rise of optimizations for high-end consoles, Ubisoft seems determined to carve out a place of choice in the hearts of gamers looking for immersive and visually impressive experiences
