Today, AMD announced a new partnership with Polish game developer and publisher 11 bit (This War of Mine, Frostpunk). AMD will become the studio’s technological partner, providing support on all of the future games developed and/or published by 11 bit, such as Frostpunk 2, The Alters, The Invincible (out next Monday), The Thaumaturge (out December 5), Codename Project 8, and more unannounced titles. The tech partnership will work across various devices powered by AMD technology: desktop PCs, laptops, handhelds, and consoles.
Cedrick Collomb, corporate VP of Software Development at AMD, said in a statement:

Szymon Jabłoński, Director of Technology at 11 bit Studios, added:
There is always a constant need to push gaming technology further, to make each generation of video games deliver astounding visuals. For the engineers working on the tech it’s an exciting challenge and to face that challenge we’re working closely with AMD. Our games are unique and have many different angles of focus. Working with AMD we can include some of their incredible technologies like AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3) in our latest titles and optimize those titles to maximize performance and visual fidelity on AMD RyzenT processors and AMD Radeon GPUs.
11 bit Studios board member Pawel Feldman said:
11 bit is stepping up as a developer and publisher, establishing cooperation with a top global tech company. For us, gameplay is super important, but so is technology, and we’ve got an awesome tech partner for years to come.
