How To Make Your PS5 Games Look Better In Just A Few Steps – SlashGear

Once you’re ready to try out some new settings and your PS5 is on and hooked up to your TV, here’s what to do:

1. In the PS5 menu, open Settings and then choose Screen and Video.
2. Select Video Output to access the options below. You can also choose Video Output Information from this menu to see your current settings.
3. Resolution will likely be set to Automatic, but you can set it to 1440p to check if your TV supports it. If not, you’ll have to stick with the highest resolution option that does work.
4. Variable refresh rate (VRR) support also depends on the TV, but if it is available, you can also turn on Apply to Unsupported Games to use it with games that weren’t made with VRR in mind.
5. 120 Hz Output can be turned on to allow for the higher 120 Hz frame rate, though not all games (or TVs) will support this option.
6. High Dynamic Range (HDR) can be set to On When Supported so that only games that offer HDR will run in HDR, or Always On to display all games in HDR.
7. Deep Color Output can be turned on to smooth out image rendering from your PS5.

Whether or not you can use all (or some) of these options ultimately comes down to what your TV can handle, but feel free to mix and match until you find the best combination.
