NVIDIA’s latest GeForce Game Ready Driver is officially out of the woods to bring one of the most important features to prominent multiplayer titles NARAKA: BLADEPOINT and Warhammer: Vermintide 2.
The two games receive the much-needed DLSS 3 and the associated Frame Generation feature boosting FPS and frame consistency since both of them are super action-focused that no only you need fast decision-making skills and snappy reactions, but you’ll also need your hardware to keep up with all the chaos.
On the other hand, fan-favorite horror game Slender: The Arrival and Lords of the Fallen joins the fray as well, receiving DLSS 3 that enhances FPS to the roof even in 4K for the no-compromise, beautiful yet buttery smooth gameplay.
On the other hand, there are a few more titles getting DLSS 2 which are the following:
- AirportSim
- HOT WHEELS UNLEASHED 2 – Turbocharged
- Land of the Vikings
- Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure
- Shadows of Doubt
This Friday we’ll also welcome the long-awaited Alan Wake 2 packed with the latest and greatest rendering technology for that 2023 triple-A game treatment.
Fitted with the full set of ray-tracing goodness plus DLSS 3.5’s Ray Reconstruction feature, the supernatural darkness tormenting fellow Alan is both beautifully terrifying or the other way around (which are both great by the way).
Thanks to the power of DLSS, the performance gain is astronomical with up to a 4.1x increase in frame rate for GeForce RTX 4090 cranking every single possible graphical setting to the maximum while under 4K resolution. The result? 120+FPS!
1440p and 1080p performance are also enhanced to reach the “fairly smooth” experience if one is gunning for maximum graphical setting or “buttery fast” response and fluidity with up to 190FPS for people willing to tone down the eye candy a bit.
If you have no patience in tuning the best RT profile for your rig, why not refer to the preset table below and see if it fits your taste?
| Ray Tracing Presets | Low | Medium | High |
| Path Tracing In Use | None | Partial (1 bounce, RT AO on last hit) | Full (3 bounces, RT AO on last hit) |
| Path Traced Indirect Lighting Quality | OFF | MEDIUM | HIGH |
| Ray Traced Direct Lighting | ON | ON | ON |
| Ray Traced Transparency | LOW | HIGH | HIGH |
Not using Ray Reconstruction for whatever reason? Then these fallbacks will kick in.
| NRD Direct Lighting Denoising Quality | LOW | HIGH | HIGH |
| NRD Indirect Lighting Denoising Quality | N/A | MEDIUM | HIGH |
