AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) is here, promising up to a 2.5x performance increase in supported games across Nvidia and AMD graphics cards. Not only are old and new games alike getting FSR support, but AMD is also improving FSR itself, which is now in version 2.0. Although FSR 2.0 doesn’t always look quite as good as Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS), it has better support for GPUs from both graphics companies and for most will provide about the same image quality as Nvidia’s upscaler.
At the moment, the vast majority of games that support FSR use version 1.0, but that’s only because version 2.0 is much newer. Over the coming months, many games will be adding FSR 2.0 to its graphics options.
AMD FSR 2.0 games available now
Deathloop
Deathloop was the first game to demonstrate FSR 2.0, and it did not disappoint. When it comes to both performance and image quality, FSR 2.0 is pretty much as good as DLSS and is also a massive improvement over FSR 1.0. If all FSR 2.0 implementations are as good as Deathloop’s, that bodes very well for upcoming titles.
Farming Simulator 22
Farming Simulator 22 is another game that supports both FSR 2.0 and DLSS. In its review, TechPowerUp found that FSR 2.0 is very similar to DLSS in both performance and image quality, and also that FSR 2.0 fixed graphical issues that are observed in FSR 1.0.
God of War
Initially, God of War supported DLSS and FSR 1.0 (the latter of which looked terrible), so it surprised many when the developer suddenly updated the game to include FSR 2.0. AMD had even made a list of upcoming games that would eventually support FSR 2.0, and God of War wasn’t on it. Perhaps this is an indication that adding FSR 2.0 to existing games isn’t all that difficult.

AMD FSR 2.0 games coming soon
So far, AMD has confirmed 10 more games to get FSR 2.0:
- Asterigos
- Delysium
- EVE Online
- Forspoken
- Grounded
- Microsoft Flight Simulator
- NiShuiHan
- Perfect World Remake
- Swordsman Remake
- Unknown 9: Awakening
Of these games, five haven’t been released yet and two are MMOs that haven’t even gotten a release date. It is a bit concerning AMD’s list is so short and names only niche titles, but if God of War’s FSR 2.0 update isn’t a one-off thing, then perhaps we can expect FSR 2.0 to make its way into other games too.
