Project Cars 2 on PS4 Pro will be 1440p with enhanced detail over the standard PS4.

According to the studio head, Project Cars 2 will run at a higher resolution compared to the base PS4 with the game rendering in 1440p (2.5K or 2560 X 1440), which is being upscaled “beautifully” to 4K. Like most PS4 Pro enhanced games, the game will probably use ‘checkerboard rendering’ to upscale to 4K, though this hasn’t been confirmed.

Apart from increased resolution, Project Cars 2 will benefit from increased visual fidelity across the board with increased level of detail on cars, track objects, grass, etc.

Furthermore, the Pro will offer extra track detail meshes alongside increased detail and resolution with shadow rendering, and increased detail and resolution with reflection rendering.

They also mentioned last month that the Xbox One X version will look significantly better.

The racer will be an Xbox One X enhanced title when the console releases in November. The specific enhancements haven’t been detailed, but Game Director Stephen Viljoen has confirmed that the game will even look significantly better on Xbox One X compared to PS4 Pro.

I was also able to find this video comparing the two version (PS4/PRO) and it looks like they made serious improvements to get PS4 running at 60 fps on a wet track.

In my opinion that is the best choice to implement ps4 pro enhancement. 1440p with visual fidelity increase is better then a straight up 4k checker-board with same ps4 visuals. Unless you can achieve a 4k CBR similar to Horizon Zero Dawn did.

Tht's technically old news. In fact, Ron made a thread stating it was going to be native 4K/60 but the dev came out to correct that info and said it too will be upscaled. But from where its the question. And how much more detail will the X have over the Pro.

It's the devs that stated 4K for X1X. I only repeated what they stated.

Why you didn't quote devs later when they said that XboneX version won't be 4k native?

There are still deciding to drop some graphics features keep 4K or drop the resolution. "Sub 60 fps 4K" is a borderline 4K 60 fps which wouldn't be a problem if they support VRR/Freesync like X1X's Battlefront 2 4K.

They also stated that they're going to drop the resolution to support better visuals and they also admitted that it won't be a guaranteed 60fps. They sounded pretty decided.

I know Drive Club is only 30fps and has a small amount of cars on track but watching video's of Project Cars 2 and Forza it really is impressive and easily apparent just how far a head Drive Club's graphics are compared to any other racing game.

It might not have the sharpest picture quality or the best quality textures but it's physically based rendering and lighting model are years a head of every other game.

Didn't the developer say 60fps or death before? Why am I seeing dips below 60 in that video? Dumb developer.

Get it on PC if you want to play it properly. :)
