On the PlayStation 5, you can play almost any PlayStation 4 game via the console’s backwards compatibility feature. A good thing of course, but there turned out to be a small issue with streaming textures. Every now and then it could happen in certain games that textures were not loaded properly, which made it look a bit bare.
One of the games in which this can happen is Shadow of the Colossus, where some parts of the world were suddenly shown in low resolution. A small detail, given that it usually goes well. Still a point of attention for Sony, apparently, because this problem has been solved with the latest firmware update.
Gamers share across platforms including Reddit, differences that can be seen since the last firmware update. This suggests that Sony has made some adjustments to the back-end for backwards compatibility.
