System Shock — PS5 & PS5 Pro performance
Technical analysis last updated
System Shock on PS5 delivers an exceptional conversion of the PC original, running at a dynamic 4K target while maintaining a near-locked 60fps frame rate. Performance is highly stable with only rare frame drops. On compatible high refresh rate displays, the title runs inside a 120Hz container to broaden the VRR window. Visual features match the original PC release, and the game includes mouse and keyboard input support alongside remappable controller settings.
