PlayStation 4 firmware update 5.50 is now available in beta, bringing a raft of new features, including a supersampling mode, which enhances the visuals of PlayStation Pro-optimised games when played on a 1080p TV. Supersampling allows games to be rendered at higher resolutions and then downscaled to 1080p, providing a slight enhancement to image quality. Previously, those using the Ultra HD-capable PlayStation Pro on a 1080p TV weren't able to enjoy any kind of boost to image quality. Conversely, Microsoft's Xbox One X shipped with supersampling capabilities. A public release for version 5.50 hasn't yet been announced. Analyst Comment I'm a member of Sony's System Software Beta program and was very excited to read about this feature.
