A character from 'Resident Evil Requiem' aims a gun, with text 'Best Camera Settings' on screen.

Resident Evil Requiem offers great flexibility for a survival-horror game by allowing players to experience the entire campaign in either first or third-person. While this choice is often down to personal preference, the distinct gameplay styles of Grace and Leon mean that one perspective usually outshines the other, depending on who you are controlling.

Although Sony has brought some of its biggest PlayStation 5 games to PC, there are still a few that have yet to make the jump, such as Gran Turismo 7. While there is no indication of the game ever making the jump to other platforms (although a GeForce NOW leak from September 2021 seemed to suggest a PC version was in the cards), Sony and developer Polyphony Digital reportedly had it run on the system least expected to receive a port: the Nintendo Switch 2.

While it left something to be desired at launch, the PlayStation 5 Pro PSSR upscaler is still very notable tech as it is the first AI-powered upscaler to be available on a home console. In the months since the system's release, the upscaler has been consistently improved to deliver better image quality, and a future version could introduce some significant changes that would prevent frame rate drops in essentially every game.
