Spider-Man Remastered PS5 vs PS4 Pro + Performance Ray Tracing 60fps Mode Tested!

Alongside Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Insomniac has updated the original Marvel's Spider-Man to run on PlayStation 5. In this detailed analysis, John Linneman compares Spider-Man on PS5 to the PS4 Pro version, finding a range of improvements. Plus he takes a closer look at the new ray traced performance mode, which delivers 60fps gaming with RT on top. How does it work and how did Insomniac deliver it?

The way he jumps off the rooftop in 60fps with ray tracing is full of the exaggerated swagger of Insomniac Games

60fps with RT in an open world game is really impressive

[UserInterface]

Insomniac set the bar high and early and they said they barely scratched the power of the PlayStation 5. The Spider-Man sequel is going to blow us away.

The fact that the "worst case" for DRS is 1080p really says something about how well optimised this is.

[ashigaramii__]

does anyone ever look reflections irl and think "damn thats some good ray tracing"

[funkamnkey]

Sony's in house dev teams are some of the best.

[NaderZico]

60fps RT is possible on consoles, this is great for the future!

12:44 The revenge of the puddles
LMAO😂😂😂

6:34 I’m imaging everyone getting their assignments at Insomniac and the artist that excitedly opens their email, only to read “update roof garbage textures”...

[ArchHippy]

So they essentially added exactly what I was begging for in the comments of the last video you did about this. I can't praise them enough for this.

Someone really wanted to fix that toaster.

This is a video that needed to be 4K 60FPS.

[writenick]

I have 1080p tv and Performance RT is perfect for me. No compromise on 60fps. Imsomniac listened to their fans. I hope more devs will follow this suit and provide options.

Ray Tracing reflections at 60 fps on a console. Man, that's really impressive, even more considering that high end PCs struggle to achieve that. Even if it's at a lower resolution and the reflections are not ultra sharp the visual effect is gorgeous and adds so much more depth to the gameplay. Insomniac proving this is possible gets me more excited about this gen.

[TiJoe]

Can’t wait to see what Insomniac can pull off with a proper full-on PS5 title, instead of cross-gen.

Mmmm, another tasty Digital Foundry content.

[pratikghosh]

The new horizon game is gonna look amazing.

[jcfan]

The Spiderman Remaster and Miles Morales games are some of the best looking games I've played. RT makes it just a cut above and really makes it stand out vs the original. Not sure how they pulled off such a sharp image not being 4K but I can't tell as it looks amazing and clean on my TV. Kudos to the entire Insomniac team!

[chrlysms]

insomniac deserves recognition for this amount of excellent work

[gamingwithdummies]

I've been playing on performance RT and it looks / feels absolutely fantastic. Great job by Insomniac!
