NVIDIA DLSS will help the Nintendo Switch 2 deliver better graphics when it arrives soon. Digital Foundry experts tried Street Fighter 6 on the new system during a hands-on test. The game runs at 60 frames per second in docked mode with some visual changes similar to PlayStation 4 and Xbox Series S versions. What surprised testers was how the game actually runs at just 540p resolution but looks like full 1080p thanks to DLSS upscaling. The clean image quality shows how well this AI tech works with lower-resolution games.
Street Fighter 6 is not the only game using this technology on the upcoming console. Cyberpunk 2077 also uses a version of NVIDIA DLSS that runs on special Tensor Cores inside the system. The game uses this upscaling...
A free mod for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 fixes one of the game's biggest problems. Modder Lyall created a patch that removes the 30 FPS limit during cutscenes, which many players found distracting when playing at higher frame rates.
