A new NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready Driver has been released today. This new driver (528.49) unlocks the full potential of the GeForce RTX 40 Series laptops, starting with RTX 4090 and 4080 models that will be launched today. With this, the RTX series GPUs found in these laptops will have their potential fully unlocked to let them become the world’s fastest for users to game with.
Additionally, the Game Ready Driver will also bring optimizations for Hello Neighbor 2, which will receive an update that will add DLSS 2, Ray-Traced Reflections, Ray-Traced Shadows, and RTXGI Ray-Traced global illumination come February 17. What’s more, PERISH will also benefit from the accelerated performance brought by DLSS 3 and DLSS 2, allowing players to enhance the action with ray-traced reflections and shadows while increasing performance thanks to NVIDIA Reflex.
If you haven’t kept up with the news, PERISH’s addition makes a grand total of 25 games that now support DLSS 3, all of which can be played today. This adds the shooter to the list of supported titles such as Deliver Us Mars, Destroy All Humans! 2 – Reprobed, Hitman 3, and, of course, Portal with RTX.
