God of War

God of War: Ragnarok is the much anticipated sequel God of War (PS4) which was released in 2018. It was soft reboot and sequel of the God of War franchise that first released on the PlayStation 2.

The 2018 game received critical and commercial success earning various Game of the Year honors. It’s a console generation defining game and one that we called an absolute must play in our review.

God of War (PS4) finds Kratos, now much older and with a son, amidst the territory of Norse gods. This, after absolute laying to waste a slew of Greek gods. We see an older, more mature Kratos as he journeys with his son, Atreus, to the highest peak of the land. They went on the journey to grant the deceased wife and mother’s last wish.

PC and handheld gamers can officially skip the wait, as AMD has launched its FSR 4.1 upscaling technology for Radeon RX 7000 series (RDNA 3) GPUs.

Computing and Graphics Group Senior Vice President and GM Jack Huynh made the announcement on X (formerly Twitter). This development brings machine learning powered gaming to millions of players across more than 300 games.

By downloading the latest AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver, users can unlock the new AI upscaling suite on existing RX 7000 series desktop graphics cards.

(The driver can be downloaded here.)

The update drastically sharpens image reconstruction, delivers far superior temporal stability, and keeps motion ghosting to an absolute minimum. That’s across a massive library of supported titles.

Beyond optimized frame rates out of the gate for those two blockbusters, the release packs vital architecture stability improvements and bug fixes for the broader Radeon ecosystem.

Huynh added that AMD is actively engineering lightweight machine learning models to expand FSR 4.1 optimizations to a wider base of gamers. More details are to come.

Moreover, the driver for the FSR 4.1 upscaling technology will deliver day-one support for two highly anticipated releases: Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations.

if you are wielding an RDNA 3 desktop rig or an RDNA 3-powered handheld, like the ROG Ally X or Lenovo Legion GO, simply open up the AMD Software suite, get the update, and test the new AI tech.
