PlayStation 4 Pro was all about 4K and HDR, however, only few gamers currently own TVs that support these technologies. But now, the developer of the upcoming action role-playing video game "Horizon: Zero Dawn" confirmed that the PS4 Pro will have a number of tricks that enhances the 1080p TV experience.

Of course, this is still up to the video game company Guerrilla Games to implement, so it won't happen in every game. Anyway, the trick is supersampling, a technique where the image of the video game is rendered at a higher resolution, and then shrunk down. It is actually an effective method of bringing up higher quality visuals, according to Attack Of The Fanboy.

Technical Director for Guerrilla Games, Michiel van der Leeuw, explained that the technique is a very high-quality anti-aliasing, which means they internally render at a higher resolution before decreasing it down to the final 1080p resolution. As their internal calculations are done at a resolution much higher than 1080p, more detail survives before they shrink it down to 1080p, which resulted in smoother edges and a more stable image, PlayStation reported.

The PlayStation 4 Pro is slated to launch in just over a week, in spite of that, it appears that developers are still working out exactly what they can do with the boosted horsepower. Michiel made it known that they are also looking at enhancing the quality of their shadow maps, as well as boosting up the quality of their anisotropic filtering. They are going to tweak these elements of the 1080p output quality for the final game, but they have quite a bit of power yet to play with.

That being said, "Horizon: Zero Dawn" is slated to be available for PlayStation 4 on Feb. 28, while PlayStation 4 Pro will be up for grabs on Nov. 10 for $399.
