Hello and welcome to the latest weekly update from Digital Foundry, posted hot on the heels of our weekly #content update. Plenty to be discussing, so let's get straight to it, eh?

Tom is taking a look at the freshly launched patch for Control Ultimate Edition on consoles, which delivers various improvements - chief amongst them being PS5 Pro support, improved anti-aliasing on all systems and an unlocked VRR mode for both quality and performance modes. There's a basic screenshot above. Beyond that, he's also got some capture of the BLOPs 7 beta. If it's interesting enough, we'll do a video. If it's not, maybe we'll discuss on the Direct.

Rich (ie me) is looking to complete the long-awaited FSR 4/RDNA 2 video and then it's on to the big handheld testing project with Asus Xbox ROG Ally X and GPD Win 5 in mind. I may also be helping out with Battlefield 6 PC coverage, but it'll be Mohammed handling the optimised settings.

John continues the big retro marathon. The Tony Hawk 3-4 episode will be completed and will go out exclusively to retro tier supporters, then he moves onto the big Xbox 360 20th anniversary video. In the meantime, he is working with Audi and the My Life in Gaming chaps on the new DF Retro podcast! Oh - and at some point he wants to cover Ninja Gaiden 4.

Alex is working on sponsored PC retro content!

Oliver is the man for our Battlefield 6 coverage on consoles, which looks set to dominate the week and may also be helping out on the PC BF6 #content too. Persona 3 Reload on Switch 2? He's interested in taking a look!

Back to work for me then, but as usual, please feel free to offer suggestions and comments! Have a great week!

If you can, please include the OLED steam deck and the Lenovo Legion Go S in the handheld comparisons. These are the two that I'm considering getting, mostly for indie games and emulating, and I'd appreciate the DF opinions on them :)

It's so annoying that the UK doesn't have a Micro Centre equivalent to go and just look at these things.

Sounds mouthwatering. You chaps rule. Thank you for all your efforts!

I’m out of the loop on CoD, but BLOPs is the best acronym I’ve ever seen.

Mr Bespoke

Is Will on is Jolly's this week?

Does the PS5 Pro Control patch bring any enhancements to the RT effects, surely be the easiest win on Pro?

Craig Marsden

Does the team have access to an MSI Claw handheld PC? I would be very useful to introduce an Intel powered alternative to the current lineup of AMD handhelds.

Very nice, thank you!

Doesn't the control patch also add HDR support?

AMH

Did you guys get review codes for persona 3 reload on switch 2?

"Rich (ie me) is looking to complete the long-awaited FSR 4/RDNA 2 video" Horray!!! :D

Typically a post will happen around Thursday where they will call for question submissions for the direct.
