I didn't realize this hadn't come out already. I finished the platinum just before the announcement. I don't think I would go back to it, but I really liked this game and hope other people will give it a go - especially if they were sheepish about the console performance.
Edit: Oh, hmm, maybe I'm confusing this with a next-gen patch to the PS4 version?

Yeah, this is a completely native PS5 version- not the PS4 patch that came out last year.
Really interesting. I hope they carry over saves and trophies. I'd be really interested in seeing what they update.
Was listed by Media Markt (Germany) already (49 Euro):
That'd be great! I've still yet to finish the game off Game Pass, so a visual fidelity and performance upgrade would be most welcome! 🙂

I thought Series X|S already had the patch? Mine has had the optimised watermark on the thumbnail for ages and runs at 60fps when it never used to.
They have to make a native PS5 version for it to work I'm assuming. The Series X can be upgraded through a patch. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah that;s true. It's more complicated with PS5 and needs native version.

I'll be honest - the rate at which devs are pumping out must-play new-gen upgrades is really just a backdoor backlog, and it's sorta pissing me off.
Kidding!.....sorta.

I felt similarly on the clunkiness when I played it on my PS4 Pro. The story kept me going but if not for that I would have dropped the game for sure.
Tried it again when they patched it for next gen consoles with a better frame rate, and it's so much better it's not even close. I ended up getting the platinum on PS5 because it runs that much better, I couldn't put the game down. Whereas I hated the combat while playing on PS4, I loved it on PS5. Especially the parrying.
I played this on a base PS4, but without any new content, I don't think I'll feel any great need to take it up again on PS5. I hope it gets a sequel, I did think it was great (except for some navigation irritations on one world).
I played it at 60fps on PC at launch and also thought the game felt clunky and half finished. The second trip to the wookie planet where you ride the bird or whatever, to the end of the game, was bad IMO.
On the one hand, this would be great news. On the other hand, that's way too many games this Friday lol (and only one I'm paying for !)
Could you elaborate on this at all?
Obviously 60 FPS without that drop to 1080p will be a benefit, but did they really patch the wonky collision/traversal and general jankiness?
Nice. I haven't started it on series X yet but looking forward to it. Glad the ps5 version can get an upgrade too.
A game that sorely needs a fast travel option added to it once the main story is completed but will never get one.
I bought the PS4 version on the cheap and left it there, waiting for this day to finally play it. Just a few days away for this upgrade would be amazing for me.
FF7 PS5, Ratchet & Clank, this, I'm already exhausted and overwhelmed with exiting stuff to play and E3 hasn't even started. 🤯
On Series X in the game library, Fallen Order was moved to Series X Enhanced section and given the X/S tag on the cover art image. This happened to me yesterday. No patch was downloaded that I could see though.
Im honestly intrigued by what this version will offer above the resolution and framerate bump that we already got in January
Yep, can't imagine going back to this game unless they add it...
Damn that's a bit counter productive. Likely due to the lack of BC architecture. Still its awesome they went the full mile, I wonder how extensive the updates are.
Both PS5 and Series X got a resolution and frame rate bump a couple months ago. Series X got a bigger upgrade then because it's not constrained by the last gen version with patches, like PS5 is.
Basically it still was just a minor update to the last gen versions, but this is a more substantial next-gen version. It'll be on XSX also and a free update to current owners of the last gen version.
This month will be awesome.
I already got the platinum for FF7R and Jedi Fallen Order, but would totally replay them on the PS5.
Add Ratchet and Metro Exodus (bought but never played) to the list.
