PS4 Pro Will Run NBA 2K17 at Native 4K Resolution, 60 FPS with HDR Support

12:08 PM - October 12, 2016 by Steve_OS

While it was mentioned last month that NBA 2K17 would support HDR on the PlayStation 4, GameSpot has confirmed the PlayStation 4 Pro will run at a native 4K resolution at 60 FPS.

For those of you on a 1080p display, it will still render a 4K resolution, resulting in "much better anti-aliasing" with HDR support.

2K told us the patch will be available prior to launch of the PlayStation 4 Pro console, which is scheduled to release on November 10 for $399.99.

It was just an observation I made on how they are marketing these 4K consoles.

How exactly would you expect them to not leave it out?

"NBA 2K will run at native 4K 60fps on the new PS4 Pro, but we should mention that this isn't going to be at the equivalent level of detail to a far more expensive PC running the same res and framerate on ultra settings", doesn't really have a ring to it.

Sure doesn't. It would be nice if people knew these things, though.

Honestly, every single person I know interested in games, both in person or across various forums, knows that PCs are capable of higher graphical quality. To act like its some secret that nobody knows about is a bit of a stretch. I'm sure there are people out there who aren't aware, but I don't see why that means any time a console game advertises that its going to be at 4K, that they also need to clarify that higher graphical settings are achievable on a PC.

No need for me to continue on about it so I'll shut up now, lol. I'm glad that console owners will get some version of 4K for their consoles.
