The transition from PS4 to PS5 was a relatively smooth one as far as console upgrades are concerned, largely thanks to backward compatiꦐbility between the two platforms. The entire PS4 library can be played on the PS5, but some games have been given special treatment through next-gen up🌺dates or performance patches.

Crash Bandicoot 4 marks the first major entry in the series in over a decade. Originally released for the PS4 and Xbox One, Crash 4 was upgraded with a next-gen release in 2021. This update targets 60FPS at 4K resolution, plus 3D audio and controller hap🌼tics.

These improvements make the game much more immersive, and the colorful world of Cra𝓀sh looks amazing on the PS5. While you can technically play Crash 4 as your first game in the series, it's definitely recommended to at leaꩵst play the N. Sane Trilogy first, which is also available on the PS4 and PS5.

The Nioh Collection includes Nioh 1 and 2 with vastly improved visuals and frame rate, with support for up to 120 FPS on suitable monitors. For an action Soulslike game like Nioh, thi🤡s extra FPS definitely doesn't hurt, and the upgraded textures and lighting also bring a whole new immersive factor to the games' dark atmosphere.

The drastically reduced loading times provided by this updated version let you get back into the g♍ame faster after you inevitably die. If you've yet to experience either Nioh game or are itching to replay them, The Nioh Collection is the best way, by far, to do so.

Rip and tear your way💞 through a vastly upgraded experience with Doom Eternal's free PS5 update. Players who owned the original game on PS4 can upgrade for free to the PS5 version, which features three different setting modes to optimize visuals, performance, or a balance of the two.

The visual-focused mode includes Raytracing, enabling beautiful graphics while still running at 60 FPS. No matter which performance mode you use, Doom Eternal looks and runs great on the PS5, offering one of the best w𒊎aౠys to play this amazing game.

The Witcher 3's next-gen update for PS5 is one of the most comprehensive out there. The standard upgrades like better performance, enhanced visuals, and optimization modes aren't even the most interesting parts of 🌟this update.

So many quality-of-life improvements and enhancements are crammed into this update, and all entirely for free. Sign quick-casting, photo mode, cross-save, pausing during cutscenes; all of these updates on top of the greatly improved graphics and performance settings make the PS5 version of the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt one of the abꦕsolute best ways to play the game.

Rainbow Six Siege is a 5v5 multiplayer shooter, with an emphasis on tactical, team-focuse𝔍d play and environmental destruction. Each game plays out differently, and only the🐼 most coordinated teams will prevail.

Rainbow Six🎐 Siege has one of the most impressive PS5 upgraded versions, with a 120 FPS performance 🃏mode that is essential for a game in this genre. In a shooter where fast reaction time is the key to victory, every frame counts. For the more casual player, this upgraded version also has a resolution mode that targets 60 FPS at 4K resolution.

The original Final Fantas🍌y 7 is one of the most popular games in the series, so it's not surprising that it gets so much special treatment. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake was upgraded into the PS5 version, Intergrade, with the DLC side story featuring Yuffie.

This update also features a performance mode for a consistent 60 FPS during intense fights, and a graphics mode for admiring the amazingly detailed 🌟scenery of Midgar. The PS5 version of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is the definitive way to play the game, and is an exceptional retelling of the original game.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order offers a unique experience in a world filled with Star Wars content. The Metroidvania-style progression system enco൩urages exploration, and there are tons of secrets to uncover when you start diving into the details found on each planet.

Fallen Order's PS5 upgraded version lets you switch between a beautiful 4K mode and a performance mode that targets 60 FPS at a slightly lower resolution. With faไster load times thanks to the PS5's SSD and an overall improvement to lighting and textures, Fallen Order has never looked or played as well as it does on the PS5.
