This week marks a notable shift for PC gamers using GeForce RTX cards, as NVIDIA releases a new Game Ready Driver that unlocks DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and brings full path tracing support to several high-profile titles.
First up is FBC: Firebreak, the cooperative shooter set in the eerie Federal Bureau of Control universe. The new update introduces the full suite of RTX features—previously refined in Alan Wake 2—including DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, DLSS Ray Reconstruction, and RTX Mega Geometry. These enhancements are designed to boost both visual fidelity and frame rates. NVIDIA reports an average 9.3× performance uplift at 4K on their RTX 50 Series, with observed frame rates reaching nearly 200 fps on the RTX 5070 Ti, around 250 fps on the RTX 5080, and up to 360 fps on the flagship RTX 5090.
On June 18, DOOM: The Dark Ages received an update that integrates path tracing—an upgrade over traditional ray tracing—offering richer, more realistic lighting and reflections. NVIDIA’s Spatial Hash Radiance Cache (SHaRC) and Shader Execution Reordering minimize performance impact, while DLSS Ray Reconstruction and Multi Frame Generation bridge the visual-to-performance gap. Benchmarks on 4K Ultra settings indicate a solid ~6.8× boost on RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 hardware, with smooth gameplay reaching ~230 fps.
Two additional Game Ready Driver features include:
- Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks, which exits Early Access and adds DLSS Super Resolution to significantly boost frame rates during its action-combat racing sequences.
- REMATCH, a fast-paced 5v5 online football (soccer) title launching June 19, developed by Sloclap. It supports full DLSS 4 enhancements—Multi Frame Generation, Frame Generation, and Super Resolution—ensuring fluid gameplay without traditional offsides or fouls.
Overall, this wave of updates from NVIDIA underscores its commitment to elevating real-time graphics on GeForce RTX hardware. Path tracing in DOOM enhances immersion through lighting precision, while DLSS 4’s Multi Frame and Ray Reconstruction technologies unlock performance headroom across new and evolving titles.
For players with RTX 50 Series GPUs, the new driver offers immediate gains: richer visuals, smoother framerates, and better resource efficiency in some of today’s most popular PC experiences.
