Remedy Entertainment has released an important new update to Alan Wake 2 for those on PS5 Pro consoles. Since the arrival of the PS5 Pro in early November, Alan Wake 2 has been one of a handful of titles that has struggled to run properly on the new platform. Remedy has since informed fans that it would be looking into a solution for the problem on the latest PlayStation console. Now, a fix has arrived alongside a new feature that will give PS5 Pro owners more control of how they play Alan Wake 2.

Downloadable right now, update 1.2.7 for Alan Wake 2 is a pretty small one. While the patch is available for Xbox and PC as well, most of what it does is tied to the PS5. To that end, Remedy has added an option to completely disable PSSR, which is the biggest feature that the PS5 Pro boasts. Outside of being able to toggle PSSR on or off, the update has also added a new “Balanced” graphical option to go along with improvements to ray tracing and frame rate. Hopefully, these fixes should solve the PS5 Pro trouble that have continued to plague AW2 in recent weeks.
To get a full look at everything that this new Alan Wake 2 update does, you can find the full patch notes attached below.
