Considering that Activision is now owned by Microsoft, we were pretty curious to see what the PS5 Pro patch for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 would bring to the table. Although it is said to enhance a few graphical settings in Quality mode (that you get when toggling off the 120 Hertz mode), it does not really show that much when comparing the game in normal play, even in terms of image quality. What can be seen though is the white flicker that plagues the Pro version in the 60 Hertz mode while it's almost completely absent on the base model. It's a very odd situation for sure, but it must be some kind of bug that will hopefully be fixed soon. Some might think it is due to PSSR, but others say it was apparently already there before the Pro patch went live. Moreover, it does not seem to look like any of the PSSR issues we've seen so far. That said, since it doesn't seem to appear in the 120 fps mode, which apparently does not use PSSR, we can still wonder. On the bright side, Quality mode can run above 60 fps if your display is VRR compatible, and activating the 120 Hertz mode allows for some even smoother gameplay experience with the same image quality as the base PS5.
