Shortly after their slew of GDC 2025 announcements, NVIDIA also shared brief new clips for a trio of highly anticipated upcoming action games: Lost Soul Aside, Stellar Blade, and Tides of Annihilation. All of them are made by Asian developers, and they will support NVIDIA DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation to guarantee exceedingly high frame rates, up to over 500 FPS in Lost Soul Aside.

The latter game has been in development for a long time. We first covered it nearly seven years ago, when it was being developed for the PlayStation 4 Pro. Unlike other long-delayed games, though, there's a very good reason - it all started as a one-man project of Yang Bing before it gained a lot of attention and support. At long last, Lost Soul Aside will launch on May 30 for PC and PlayStation 5, making it the first single player game published by Sony Interactive Entertainment to release day and date on the two platforms. The action title, which still runs on Unreal Engine 4, also supports ray tracing; you can find detailed system requirements here.

Strictly in order of release, the next game is Stellar Blade from Korean developer Shift Up. This one (also published by Sony Interactive Entertainment like Lost Soul Aside) launched a year ago on the PlayStation 5 to excellent sales and reviews, though developer and publisher have both since been sued for trademark infringement.

As seen in the brief footage, Stellar Blade, which is also powered by Unreal Engine 4, runs at up to 371 frames per second with NVIDIA DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation. The PC release is expected at some point in June. We don't have the official system requirements yet.

Lastly, we have the most recently announced game: Tides of Annihilation. This action/adventure title inspired by Arthurian myths is in development at Eclipse Glow Games with the Unreal Engine 5, tentatively slated for a 2026 launch. In the trailer, we see it running at up to 359 frames per second with the aid of NVIDIA DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation.

Needless to say, all these trailers were captured on the new NVIDIA flagship GPU, the GeForce RTX 5090. Moreover, they will have selected Performance Mode at 4K resolution to maximize frame rates. Still, even with these small caveats, they are impressive frame rate figures. We'll still have to wait to actually play the games before judging their smoothness, though, as stuttering could nonetheless mar even a high frame rate experience.

Which of these games are you most eager to play? Let us know below.
