In the world of graphical upscaling, many would likely think of DLSS, or Deep Learning Super Sampling, byNvidiaas the final word in the tech. However, with version 2.0 of AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution having just come out andApple recently unveiling its MetalFX upscaling algorithm, team green is going to have to work hard to stay on top of the game. Fortunately, it seems to be doing quite well for itself, as the company announced that hundreds of games and apps now support the AI-driven technology.
In a recent post on theNvidiawebsite, DLSS is said to be available for all “major game engines,” with the software now supporting 200 titles and applications. A quick look on the PC Gaming Wiki shows the sheer number of games that come with upscaling. While version 1.0 only has a few games on the list, including some well-known titles likeBattlefield 5andMetro Exodus, there are so many popular games that feature DLSS 2.0 and even some that support later versions, such asCall of Duty: Warzone’s 2.3.4 support.

In the past,Nvidia has said it wanted to bring DLSS to more games, and this shows that, a year and a half later, this has come to fruition. Of course, it’s unlikely to end there. The upcomingLord of the Rings: Gollumwill be launching with DLSS and ray tracing, as will the September launch ofSteelrising. Essentially, there’s going to be a lot more titles that will likely be utilizing Nvidia’s tech. Upscaling is pretty much the standard these days, aiming to improve visuals with less work for a system’s hardware. Many games now get updated with it after release, and the list is growing all the time.
However, team green has a lot of competition on its hands. As mentioned earlier,AMD released FSR 2.0 recently, which now supports more than 100 games, includingDeath StrandingandGod of War. There are even mods that allow games likeCyberpunk 2077andRed Dead Redemption 2to support it, due in part to FSR being open source.
In addition to AMD and Apple,Nvidiawill also need to go up againstIntel’s XeSS which it showed off earlier this year, though team blue seems to be dragging its feet a bit about launching. In any case, there’s a lot more choice for gamers when it comes to upscaling, so team green needs to play the long game.
