NVIDIA Launches Updated Game Ready Driver for RTX 5070 and Fragpunk Featuring DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation

NVIDIA Unveils New Game Ready Driver Alongside GeForce RTX 5070

Today marks a significant advancement for gamers as NVIDIA rolls out a new Game Ready driver tailored for the recently announced GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card. This update not only enhances performance for the latest hardware but also incorporates optimizations for titles like Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and the highly anticipated Fragpunk.

Fragpunk: A New Contender in Hero Shooters

Fragpunk, developed by Bad Guitar Studio, is a fast-paced 5v5 hero shooter set to launch tomorrow. This new title will fully leverage the capabilities of NVIDIA’s DLSS 4 suite, featuring technologies like Super Resolution, Frame Generation, and Multi Frame Generation, which are designed to boost performance significantly. Additionally, Fragpunk will showcase ray tracing effects, enhancing the visual experience.

Exceptional Performance Expectations

NVIDIA claims that the GeForce RTX 50 Series can provide an astounding 4.6x performance boost at 4K resolution with all settings on high. The flagship model, the GeForce RTX 5090, is expected to achieve frame rates nearing 500 FPS when ray tracing is activated alongside Super Resolution in Performance mode, benefiting from the new transformer model. For those who prioritize visual fidelity, opting for DLAA could yield superior image quality over raw frame rates. Additionally, enabling NVIDIA Reflex can minimize your system’s latency by up to 60%, a critical advantage in competitive gameplay scenarios.

Upcoming Titles with DLSS Support

In addition to Fragpunk, tomorrow will see the early access launch of Dragonkin: The Banished by Nacon and Eko Software, which promises day-one support for DLSS Super Resolution and Frame Generation. Players can expect this game to remain in early access for approximately seven to ten months, allowing for ongoing development and optimization.

Recent Game Releases and Enhancements

Just yesterday, two games debuted with varied levels of NVIDIA’s RTX technology.Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced supports NVIDIA’s DLSS Super Resolution, DLAA, and Reflex, with Frame Generation set to be implemented shortly. Meanwhile, Vector Strike, a unique blend of sports and first-person shooting from Chamo Games, welcomes players into a 4v4 arena environment, also utilizing NVIDIA RTX capabilities.

Looking Ahead: Valve’s Innovation

In a noteworthy development, Valve’s upcoming game Deadlock is set to incorporate support for NVIDIA’s DLSS Super Resolution, DLAA, and Reflex, promising to enhance player experience by reducing latency by up to 45%. The game is currently in a testing phase with a select user group and awaits an official release date.

Future Prospects: Rise of the Ronin

Lastly, gamers can look forward to Koei Tecmo’s PC port of Rise of the Ronin, which, after its console debut last year, is set for launch on March 11, equipped with support for both DLSS Super Resolution and Frame Generation features.
