EA’s highly anticipated FPS, Battlefield 6, is set to elevate the gaming experience on PC by incorporating support for advanced upscaling technologies, namely NVIDIA’s DLSS, AMD’s FSR, and Intel’s XeSS.
Battlefield 6 Set to Feature Comprehensive Upscaling Support on PC
In a recent announcement, EA revealed its collaboration with Intel aimed at optimizing the gameplay experience for PC users. This partnership will ensure that XeSS 2 is fully supported right from the game’s launch, along with enhancements to scheduler functionalities for Intel’s Core Ultra and Core CPUs. This development signals an exciting time for PC gamers, as all leading upscaling technologies will be available from day one.
An Intel-produced video provided a sneak peek into the in-game graphics settings, clearly showcasing options for all three upscaling technologies. While the video primarily highlighted Intel’s XeSS, the settings menu indicated four distinct blocks, suggesting that NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR will also be included. Players will have the ability to select their preferred upscaling mode, with an option visibly set to “Ultra Performance.” Additionally, a tab for enabling low-latency modes for each technology was also noted.

Intel’s XeSS 2 promises to deliver enhanced upscaling alongside frame generation and low-latency features. Utilizing the latest v1.2 SDK, XeSS 2 is compatible with a variety of NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, further emphasizing the importance of native support. Presently, details regarding the specific versions of NVIDIA’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR are still under wraps. However, it is anticipated that DLSS 4 will be integrated, especially given its support for the new RTX 50 series and backward compatibility with RTX 20 series cards, including frame generation capabilities.
On the AMD front, it is speculated that either FSR 3 or FSR 4 will be utilized, with FSR 4 designed for RDNA 4 GPUs. Meanwhile, RDNA 3 GPUs can harness FSR 3 along with frame generation. Opting for FSR 4 could be advantageous, as its AI-driven optimization competes effectively with DLSS and XeSS in terms of upscaling quality.

While the minimum specifications for the Battlefield 6 BETA are considered reasonable, players should prepare for demanding graphics, as evidenced by the stunning visuals presented in the recent single-player and multiplayer trailers. Although the BETA is not expected to incorporate the new upscaling technologies—set to launch alongside the game on October 10—players can look forward to some performance optimizations in the upcoming BETA build.
