The PS5 won't support native 1440p

Scheduled for November 19, the Sony console will natively support 1080p and 4K exclusively. Players with 1440p screens will have to settle for scaling or oversampling in order to adapt the resolution of the games to their screen.

The PS5 won't support native 1440p

As next-gen consoles compete for 4K support, we would have expected the PS5 to natively support the 1440p resolution.

Recent claims by Sony suggest that this is not going to be the case, as the console will only support 1080p and 4K. The 1440p would therefore be simulated by scaling the two supported resolutions. Players with a 1440p screen will end up with reduced graphics.

This limitation could allow Microsoft to gain ground with its Xbox Series S, specifically designed for 1440p, while the X Series will also natively support this resolution.

Note, however, that this issue will affect only a few players, as most PS5 users play on a TV. Only players using a specific 1440p PC screen will be affected.

Despite all this, it's hard to see how the PS5 could suffer in terms of sales or popularity.
