Overwatch
Overwatch targets 60fps across both base PlayStation 4 and PS4 Pro consoles. The standard PS4 uses dynamic resolution scaling that rarely drops below 1080p, while the PS4 Pro locks native 1080p gameplay alongside a 4K HUD overlay. PS4 Pro adds higher-quality anisotropic texture filtering and slightly improved depth of field, but general image quality enhancements remain minimal.
