In December we celebrated the release of over 500 RTX-enhanced games and apps. And now, we’ve already surpassed 600 RTX games and apps, as adoption of NVIDIA DLSSNVIDIA Reflex and advanced ray-traced effects continues to accelerate. Today, at Gamescom 2024, we’ve announced that 20 new games are adding DLSS and RTX technologies!

20 New DLSS & RTX Games

To start, the time has finally come to embark on a thrilling journey through Chinese mythology in Black Myth: Wukong. Out now, this much-anticipated action role-playing game from Game Science is enhanced by full ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS 3. This increases the fidelity and quality of lighting, reflections and shadows and lets players with GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs and Ultimate GeForce NOW members play on max settings without issue.

Next, as part of our collaboration with Ubisoft, Massive Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games on Star Wars™ Outlaws, we’re introducing a new Star Wars™ Outlaws GeForce RTX 40 Series Bundle, available until September 19. Learn more. 

This will let you experience all the benefits of the RTX technology in Star Wars™ Outlaws. From DLSS 3.5 with Ray Reconstruction, to RTX Dynamic Illumination and NVIDIA Reflex, players will get more frames, lower latency and more beautiful sights of a galaxy far, far away. And even those without access to GeForce RTX 40 series GPUs can have the same experience thanks to GeForce NOW.

Players will also be able to use DLSS 3.5 and full Ray Tracing to uncover one of history’s greatest mysteries in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, launching later this year from publisher Bethesda Softworks and MachineGames, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games. This will make your adventures from the hallowed halls of the Vatican and the sunken temples of Sukhothai far more immersive and smooth. Plus, to celebrate our technical partnership with Machine Games and Bethesda Softworks, we’re giving away a GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER Founders Edition graphics card and custom Indiana Jones backplate.

ACE & digital human technologies showcased in first game, Mecha BREAK

NVIDIA ACE is a revolutionary suite of digital human technologies that bring digital humans to life. ACE made its debut in the Ramen Shop demo at Computex 2023, but ACE has evolved rapidly.

At Gamescom 2024, we announced that its first digital human small language model is being demonstrated in Mecha BREAK, a new multiplayer mech game developed by Amazing Seasun Games, to bring its characters to life and provide a more dynamic and immersive gameplay experience on GeForce RTX™ AI PCsMecha BREAK, developed by Amazing Seasun Games, a Kingsoft Corporation game subsidiary, is showcasing the NVIDIA Nemotron-4 4B Instruct NIM running on device in the first showcase of ACE-powered game interactions.

And this is just the start, as more developers are incorporating NVIDIA ACE technologies into their games and applications. Global game publisher and developer Perfect World Games is advancing its NVIDIA ACE and digital human technology demo, Legends, with new AI-powered vision capabilities. Within the demo, the character Yun Ni can see gamers and identify people and objects in the real world using the computer’s camera powered by ChatGPT-4o, adding an augmented reality layer to the gameplay experience. These capabilities unlock a new level of immersion and accessibility for PC games.

MediaTek collaboration brings G-SYNC display tech to more gamers

NVIDIA is working with MediaTek to make the industry’s best gaming display technologies more accessible to gamers globally. The full suite of G-SYNC technologies is getting integrated into the world’s most popular scalers.

This eliminates the need for a separate G-SYNC module, streamlining the production process and reducing costs. A highlight of this collaboration is the introduction of G-SYNC Pulsar. This new technology offers 4x the effective motion clarity alongside a smooth and tear-free variable refresh rate (VRR) gaming experience. It will debut on newly announced monitors, including the ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz PG27AQNR, Acer Predator XB273U F5 and AOC AGON PRO AG276QSG2. These 2560×1440 Pulsar monitors, expected later this year, feature 360Hz refresh rates and HDR support.
