Adoption of green team’s “revolution in neural graphics” appears to be steadily growing. Ahead of next week’s Game Developers Conference (GDC), NVIDIA revealed today that DLSS 3, the latest iteration of its frame-rate-boosting technology that comprises DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS Frame Generation, and NVIDIA Reflex, is headed to Diablo IV (June 6), Forza Horizon 5 (March 28), and Redfall (May 2), allowing those with the proper hardware (i.e., the GeForce RTX 40 Series) to enjoy these anticipated titles at higher levels of performance. According to a press release from NVIDIA, there are already over 270 games and applications that use NVIDIA DLSS to date, and apparently, that number is only going to get higher. NVIDIA has also publicly released the DLSS Frame Generation plug-in to ease developer adoption of the technology, while a DLSS 3 plug-in will debut in the 5.2 version of Unreal Engine.

“Neural graphics has revolutionized gaming since its introduction with NVIDIA DLSS, and we’re now taking it to new heights,” said Matt Wuebbling, vice president of global GeForce marketing at NVIDIA. “PC gaming super-franchises such as Diablo and Forza Horizon and Bethesda’s new Redfall are raising the bar for image quality with stunning graphics while using DLSS to keep gameplay smooth as silk.”

“Supporting smooth gameplay in Diablo IV is a priority for Blizzard,” said Michael Bukowski, Diablo IV technical director at Blizzard Entertainment. “We’re excited by the high frame rate of Diablo IV running on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series hardware and DLSS 3.”

“NVIDIA DLSS 3 introduces truly impressive frame generation technology and the Unreal Engine 5.2 plug-in will offer developers a great choice for increased quality and performance of their games,” said Nick Penwarden, vice president of engineering at Epic Games.

From an NVIDIA press release:

Among the highly anticipated games being added to the DLSS roster is Forza Horizon 5, named the best open-world racing game of all time by several media outlets and currently holding the highest rating of any racing game tracked by OpenCritic. Forza Horizon 5, which already supports ray tracing, will update to DLSS 3 on March 28.

Redfall, Bethesda’s highly anticipated, open-world, co-op first-person shooter from Arkane Austin, the award-winning team behind Prey and Dishonored, is launching on May 2 with DLSS 3.

In addition, Diablo IV, the latest installment of the genre-defining Diablo franchise — multiple games of which are considered among the best of all time — will be launching on June 6 with DLSS 3.
