Insomniac Games’ latest update for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is live, adding support for the upcoming PS5 Pro. Performance Pro is the default for the console, targeting 60 frames per second and enabling all ray-tracing features, including ray-traced water and window interiors. The image quality also matches Fidelity Mode thanks to PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution.
There’s also Fidelity Pro, which targets 30 FPS and features increased pedestrian and traffic density alongside increased hair detail. It also exclusively features the new RT Reflections and RT Key Light Shadows toggles. The former renders at half the resolution for improved performance on Medium, while High delivers full-resolution reflections and smoother reflection animations.
The latter replaces cascaded shadow maps, delivering ray-traced sun shadows. It can be turned on or off and offers the most impact in cityscapes. With VRR and 120 Hz Display Mode options, players can effectively tune both options based on their frame rate preference.
Finally, there’s RT Ambient Occlusion. Turning it off improves performance, while Medium “augments” screen-space ambient occlusions and High adds screen-space global illumination bounces.
Check out the full update notes below. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is available for PS5. It’s also coming to PC on January 30th, 2025. Unfortunately, Insomniac doesn’t have any additional story content planned.
