Today, NVIDIA unveiled the Alan Wake 2 RTX bundle. Purchasing a GeForce RTX 4070, 4070 Ti, 4080, and 4090 graphics card and desktop PC, or a laptop with a GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU, RTX 4080 Laptop GPU, or RTX 4070 Laptop GPU at select retailers will grant a digital copy of the survival horror game due to launch on October 27th. The Alan Wake 2 RTX bundle offer will be available until November 13th.
Alan Wake 2 has a plethora of NVIDIA RTX features planned for its PC version, including DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS Frame Generation, and DLSS Ray Reconstruction. It will also be the second triple-A game to implement path tracing (also known as full ray tracing) after CD Projekt RED's Cyberpunk 2077. All these features will be available via NVIDIA's GeForce NOW, too, provided you're subscribed to the Ultimate tier (which has exclusive access to DLSS Frame Generation). Priority tier customers will get to enable DLSS Super Resolution and Ray Reconstruction.
Today, NVIDIA also released a new Game Ready driver (version 537.58) for its GeForce graphics cards. It is optimized for Turn 10's Forza Motorsport, which officially launches today (even though owners of the Premium Edition have had access to the game since last week), and Hexworks' Soulslike game Lords of the Fallen, out this Friday (look for our review on Thursday).
Forza Motorsport supports NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and DLAA (Deep Learning Anti-Aliasing). Lords of the Fallen launches with DLSS Super Resolution and Frame Generation support, as well as the latency-lowering Reflex technology. According to NVIDIA, DLSS boosts performance by up to 2.9x at 4K (with Super Resolution set to Performance Mode) and maximum settings in the latter game.
The new Game Ready driver is also optimized for the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III early access PC beta, which will support DLSS Super Resolution and Reflex when it begins in two days (you still have a chance to enter our contest to get a code, by the way). NVIDIA said DLSS Frame Generation will be available when the game launches on November 10th (the campaign will be accessible starting November 2nd for pre-order customers).
The new GeForce Game Ready driver also fixed the following bugs:
Gaming
- Add Microsoft Store/Xbox Game Pass application profile for Lies of P
General
- [GeForce RTX 4060] GPU monitoring utilities reporting incorrect idle power usage
- Increased DPC latency may be observed when the GPU is connected over HDMI 2.1 FRL at 10bpc/12bpc
DLSS Super Resolution + Frame Generation and DLAA are already available in RoboCop: Rogue City's demo, out now as part of Steam Next Fest.
Last but not least, NVIDIA released a new October Studio Driver today. NVIDIA Studio technologies are on display at Adobe Max, with new updates and features coming to Adobe Firefly (running on NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud).
