Sony has just revealed seven additional games that’ll get enhanced by its PS5 Pro, coming November 7th, on top of the games it previously revealed. New titles include Stellar Blade, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, F1 24, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, both Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil 4, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
That means the whole confirmed lineup so far has 20 Enhanced games, including:

Dragon Age: The Veilguard
Dragon’s Dogma II
F1 24
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Hogwarts Legacy
Horizon Forbidden West

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil Village
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
Stellar Blade
The Crew Motorfest
The First Descendant
The Last of Us Part II Remastered
On September 10th, Sony announced the $700 PS5 Pro, whose price was an immediate topic of debate — one of the most expensive PlayStations ever, even counting for inflation, and one whose disc drive is now optional and sold separately. Some joked immediately that they couldn’t even see the difference.
But though it may not have been clear from Sony’s initial YouTube livestream unveiling, we’ve since seen that the PS5 Pro does legitimately promise graphical improvements over the original PS5, particularly in games that felt compromised on the original like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.
When games are explicitly patched for the new console, like the ones Sony has so far revealed, they should no longer require players to choose between a smooth 60 frames per second and a high level of detail: the PS5 Pro’s additional horsepower and AI-enhanced “PSSR” upscaling should mean you get both the high resolution and high frame rate modes of the original PS5 simultaneously.
Sony hasn’t yet revealed what resolutions or frame rates each of these enhanced games will run at internally. It has said it expects 40–50 games will have PS5 Pro patches by the time the system launches, and the PS5 Pro can still play PS4 and PS5 titles that haven’t been patched as well. Some may be able to run faster in a Boost Mode.
