NVIDIA has prepared several announcements for today, starting with the release of a new GeForce Game Ready driver optimized for next week’s big releases: STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
The two games will be released on November 20 and November 19, respectively, and both will support NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and Frame Generation. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 will also include NVIDIA DLAA and ray traced shadows to maximize visual fidelity.
Gamers can also enable DLSS Super Resolution or DLAA in Giants Software’s Farming Simulator 25, which launches today. Moreover, the fast-paced multiplayer melee action game Mortal Rite launched on Steam Early Access last week with support for DLSS Super Resolution.
NVIDIA had a marketing announcement to make, too. Starting today, users can get the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle GeForce RTX 40 Series Bundle. They will receive the game’s Digital Premium Edition (regularly priced at $99.99 value) with the purchase at select retailers of a qualifying GeForce RTX 4090, 4080 SUPER, 4080, 4070 Ti SUPER, 4070 Ti, 4070 SUPER or 4070 desktop or graphics card, or a laptop with a GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU, RTX 4080 Laptop GPU, RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. On top of that, the Digital Premium Edition will allow early access to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on December 6, three days before the official release date of December 9.
Circling back to the new GeForce Game Ready driver, it also adds support for one-click optimization of the following games: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Delta Force, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, and Red Dead Redemption. One-click optimization can be performed via GeForce Experience or the new NVIDIA app, which launches out of beta today. According to NVIDIA, the app installs in half the time compared to GeForce Experience, uses 17% less disk space, and has a modernized UI that is 50% more responsive.
Users can access various functionalities and even install applications like GGeForce NOW to play games via cloud, NVIDIA Broadcast to improve their live streams, Canvas to turn basic brushstrokes into realistic landscape pictures, ICAT to create image or video comparisons, FrameView to measure game performance, ChatRTX to add a personalized GPT LLM chatbot hosted locally, or RTX Remix to remaster classic PC games. Remaining options from the classic Control Panel, such as Surround, Multiple Display mode, and Video Color settings, will be added in future updates alongside further updates and enhancements.
