People, the time to power-pounce The First Berserker: Khazan has come, and this time not just to increase the stats. Nope, NVIDIA just announced that their latest DLSS 4 with Multi-Frame Generation would increase the game’s performance at 4K max settings by a whopping average of 3.5 times. Yes, you read that right-3.5 freaking times fast.
So what exactly is DLSS 4? Have you been living under a rock, or have you been trying hard to avoid the never-ending chain of GPU news? Well, to put it concisely, it is black magic that uses AI to upscale the resolution of the game while attempting to maintain good frame rate. And now it’s not just upscaling-the new version predicts frames into the future so things are smoother than butter on a hot skillet.
The First Berserker: Khazan already looked like it should-be-bloody-dark-including-brutal-combat and all that stuff. But now? NVIDIA’s magic has made that high-end rig run like a dream! And really, if you’re the type to play anything called The First Berserker, you would prefer it look as crazy as possible while buttery-smooth framerates get you through. When those epic swings of the sword aren’t smooth, that is what they are-a slideshow.
And now for the fun part-the very same company that made addressable lighting incidental waaay back is not giving some theoretical setting of “oh maybe you will see a boost” nonsense. This is an average performance enhancement of 3.5 times. Some setups are going to see even more profit. And at 4K? It’s the holy grail for PC gamers who want their games to look as real as a game can look without frying their GPUs in the process.
By the way, DLSS 4 requires the RTX 40-series. So if you are still on the 30 series (and god forbid something older), that makes you high and dry right now. But hey, if you’ve got the hardware, this is basically free performance. And who doesn’t love free?
If, in fact, you have been drooling over The First Berserker: Khazan and have the system to run it; this is your sign to go max out all settings and let DLSS 4 work its magic. Just do not come crying to us after losing track of time because the game looks *too* freaking cool.
And hey, if you’re among those who have done it, let us know in the comments whether it actually does what NVIDIA claims it does. Or if you’re still waiting for that GPU upgrade, join us as we scream into the void. Future of gaming graphics, in either case, appears *real* shiny at the moment.
Wait, what was I saying? Oh, right-DLSS 4 is insane, so go play in 4K. The end.
