The PS5 will not support 1440p resolution natively, Sony has confirmed with IGN Italy.
Sony detailed that the PS5 will work on 1440p displays but will either downscale from a 4K output or upscale from a 1080p one. The move means the PS5 will follow in the footsteps of the PS4, even though a number of PS4 games actually run at that midpoint resolution.
Sad news for those of us with a 1440p display, but at least the PS5 will still work on it, eh? Sony’s powerhouse next-gen console can output at a maximum of 8K, or more realistically, 4K and 120FPS (frames-per-second) on HDMI 2.1-complaint devices.
The PS5 heads to store shelves on 12 November.
