More Games Embracing NVIDIA DLSS
In addition to the new DOOM bundle, NVIDIA also made an announcement that additional games are embracing their incredible DLSS tech. DLSS, in case you didn't know, is NVIDIA's AI-based rendering technology that enhances performance without sacrificing image quality.
Current and Future Games Supporting New DLSS
The ARC Raiders Test, freshly available to everyone, already accommodates DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation. Even if you're using an older RTX card, you're not missing out – users with RTX 40 series can enable the base Frame Generation, and those using RTX 20/30 series have Super Resolution as an option.
Good news for fans of traditional RPGs. The recently released The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered supports NVIDIA DLSS in full. You can leverage Frame Generation, Super Resolution, and DLAA for improved visuals and performance. And if you turn on hardware-accelerated Lumen ray traced global illumination, your RTX card ray tracing cores will get some exercise.
If you enjoy roguelite first-person shooters, Deadzone: Rogue, which is in early access, also released this week with the full suite of NVIDIA technology: DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, Frame Generation, Super Resolution, and DLAA. Similar to Oblivion Remastered, it takes advantage of RT Cores when you enable Lumen-based hardware-accelerated ray tracing.
The stunning Wuxia open-world action/adventure RPG, Where Winds Meet, has also been updated to support DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, in addition to Frame Generation and Super Resolution. According to NVIDIA, it sees really incredible performance gains – up to 3.9 times faster at 4K resolution with maximum settings. That means that a GeForce RTX 5090 can render over 500 frames per second in the game. Look for a new Closed Beta Test shortly.
Finally, if you're conducting the Beta 2 Test of third-person PvPvE extraction RPG Mistfall Hunter, you'll discover it already uses NVIDIA DLSS Frame Generation and Super Resolution.
Obviously, NVIDIA is continuing to drive the adoption of DLSS through a high number of new releases and also optimized games so that players can achieve the very best out of their hardware in terms of both performance and picture quality.
