'All of Pro's modes also have improved global illumination, screen space reflections (except quality mode due to RT) and sub surface scattering compared to their equivalent base PS5 mode.' - The aforementioned modes/extra information is taken from Dying Light 2, as DL: The Beast has no hard technical figures just yet. However, Techland have publicly stated that The Beast will take its modes much further than DL2: SH. So we should expect that what's above provides a good baseline of what to expect.
