The PS5 Pro version will introduce a Pro Mode targeting a stable 60 FPS while delivering higher 4K resolutions and supporting Lumen Reflections for more dynamic lighting effects. PlayStation Plus members will have access to a pack of Venom-inspired cosmetics for Peni Parker, including a mech suit, name card, spray can, and a dedicated MVP animation.
