Path Tracing Comes to DOOM: The Dark Ages, Plus DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation launching with FBC: Firebreak and a new GeForce Game Ready Driver
This week, DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and full ray tracing is launching in FBC: Firebreak, while DOOM: The Dark Ages receives a path tracing upgrade that adds DLSS Ray Reconstruction, amplifying image quality in the critically acclaimed shooter. NVIDIA is also releasing a new GeForce Game Ready Driver that includes day-zero support for FBC: Firebreak, DOOM: The Dark Ages' new update and REMATCH, a new multiplayer sports game featuring DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation. Remedy Entertainment's new three-player cooperative first-person shooter, FBC: Firebreak, is set in the same Federal Bureau of Control players reclaimed from supernatural invaders in the graphically spectacular Control. This time, as one of the FBC's fearless first responders, gamers and their teams are on call to confront everything from reality-warping Corrupted Items to otherworldly monsters, no matter the odds. FBC: Firebreak on PC features the full suite of RTX technology developed for Remedy's Alan Wake 2, giving GeForce RTX gamers the definitive PC gaming experience. Activate DLSS 4 for the highest levels of performance, enable DLSS Ray Reconstruction to enhance ray tracing fidelity and frame rates and crank the Ray Tracing Preset to max to enable full ray tracing. All GeForce RTX gamers benefit from NVIDIA RTX Mega Geometry when ray tracing is enabled, which reduces CPU and GPU Bounding Volume Hierarchies build and update times while also reducing VRAM consumption. On average, DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution and DLSS Ray Reconstruction multiply performance by 9.3X at 4K max settings on GeForce RTX 50 Series desktop GPUs. Gamers can play FBC: Firebreak with full ray tracing at almost 200 frames per second on the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, at nearly 250 frames per second on the GeForce RTX 5080 and at 360 frames per second on the GeForce RTX 5090, the fastest consumer gaming graphics card available. Bethesda Softworks and id Software are adding path tracing and DLSS Ray Reconstruction to DOOM: The Dark Ages on June 18th, making the battle against Hell all the more immersive. Path tracing takes the quality of ray-traced lighting to the next level, reflecting additional detail and game elements on surfaces. NVIDIA Spatial Hash Radiance Cache (SHaRC) technology is leveraged to performantly compute path-traced light, while NVIDIA Shader Execution Reordering further accelerates performance on GeForce RTX GPUs, and DLSS Ray Reconstruction further enhances image quality and performance. Using DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Super Resolution and DLSS Ray Reconstruction, performance at 4K is multiplied by an average of 6.8X on the GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080, enabling Ultra Preset, path traced DOOM: The Dark Ages gameplay at up to 230 frames per second. Wired Productions and Caged Element's Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is an action combat racing game that recently exited Early Access. Now, GeForce RTX gamers joining the high-Orktane racing will discover support for DLSS Super Resolution, significantly accelerating frame rates. Sloclap, creators of the critically acclaimed Sifu, are launching REMATCH on June 19th with Advanced Access available now via the purchase of Pro and Elite editions of the game. This 5v5 multiplayer football/soccer sports game sees players compete online in fast-paced, skill-based matches, free from offsides and fouls. When the game boots up, players can enable DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Frame Generation and DLSS Super Resolution to accelerate the frame rates of each football match. Editor's Notes:
