You would have to see them side by side to see it but it is there, it’s very subtle. It looks sharper, more refined and the colours just pop off the screen. Graphically, while The Pathless was already a beautiful game It looks stunning on the PlayStation 5. It’s a few small things in theory, but they add so much to the overall experience. The right side of your controller will have a subtle vibration when you jump, the left side will slightly vibrate when you let loose an arrow and you can feel every bow draw on the adaptive triggers. The Pathless was a great experience anyway but now it is heightened by the amazing new qualities of PlayStation’s new controller. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are game-changing features. The Dualsense is where you will get the biggest improvement for The Pathless. Time is money though so any wiggle-room will be happily accepted. All in all, the SSD does shave a nice chunk of time off the PS5 version but the Pathless was already quite good in this department anyway, so it is by no means a game-changing feature.

It’s not too shabby either way but a nice boost to load times is never frowned upon. No room for checking your Twitter or making a brew now!įrom the menu to gameplay takes 7 seconds on the Pro and 4 seconds on the PS5. From clicking the game tile to hitting the menu screen takes 30.58 seconds on the Pro and 18.5 seconds on the PS5, not far off half the time. The solid-state drive is a much-touted part of the PlayStation 5, but how much does it affect The Pathless? Well, quite a bit actually, I even dragged out the old PS4 Pro to do a few comparisons for you lucky people. The Pathless has a lovely, ethereal quality to it.
