Gaming technology has seen huge leaps of advancements when it comes to PC or console gaming. Both these platforms have come a long way from when we enjoyed any game featuring ordinary-looking details of character models & environment to ultra-realistic graphics with an insane level of detail and visuals. Well, the new RTX and DLSS feature augments it to a whole new level.
Many promising AAA titles are releasing in 2022 for PC and PS5 that will fully leverage the RTX & DLSS technology, which will result in smoother performance with dynamic lighting and ray-tracing enabled. Here’s our list of games that will implement DLSS and RTX technology that was unveiled at the NVIDIA CES presentation.
What are RTX and DLSS?
Simply put, RTX or Ray Tracing adds various effects on computer-generated objects that make it realistic by dynamically adjusting the way lighting effects are rendered and adding more realism. If you’ve played any RTX-based games like Cyberpunk 2077, you’ve seen how sharp the shadows look and how perfectly the light reflects on objects and the environment from the sun, moon, or any other natural light source.
DLSS on the other hand uses AI technology to upscale the resolution without actually changing the native resolution and thereby increasing the performance severely. Many AAA titles use this technology to enhance the visuals of the game as well as increase the game’s performance to make it more immersive and fun to play.
Upcoming games that will use RTX and DLSS
2022 is going to be a very exciting year for both single-player and multiplayer games with realistic lighting and a high level of detail. Both RTX & DLSS technology are going to be used in these games to assure superior performance and best-looking visuals. Here’s our list of upcoming AAA games that will use RTX and DLSS.
