In brief: Just as AMD is celebrating the year being available for its FSR upscaling technology, Nvidia’s DLSS is nearly four years old. Developers haven’t been too quick to adopt either technology, but Team Green claims bragging rights for being the first to hit the 200-game milestone.
Last year AMD introduced its FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) technology – the long-awaited answer to Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS). Since then, several developers have implemented FSR in their titles and Team Red claims more than 110 existing and upcoming games support the upscaling technology – however, that’s between FSR and FSR 2.0, the former of which is generally inferior.
The company reached this level of support relatively quickly. However, DLSS is still superior when you consider the number of released games and applications that can take advantage of it. At the time of writing, Nvidia claims there are no less than 200 titles that can use DLSS for a healthy performance boost.
Nvidia’s DLSS will also be available in upcoming titles such as Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, Steelrising, and A Plague Tale: Requiem. This month, Loopmancer, Hell Pie and others will also include support for DLSS, allowing cards like the RTX 3060 and RTX 3070 to achieve high frame rates even at 4K with ray-traced reflections and ray-traced ambient occlusion enabled.
PCGamingWiki has a nice one list of any games that support FSR, DLSS, or both. It’s worth noting that there are over 40 more games that have been announced to support DLSS but have yet to receive them, including the following:
- A Plague Tale: Requiem
- ARK: Survival Evolved
- Atomic Heart
- Black myth: Wukong
- Border
- Darksiders 3
- fearless
- Dying: 1983
- F1 22
- fear the wolves
- The Forge Arena
- broken land
- GRAIN

- Synchronized: Off the Planet
- System Shock (available in demo now)
- The Anacrusis (Now Available in Early Access)

- Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2
- void train
- Warhammer 40,000: Darktide

You could argue that AMD has achieved a relatively higher adoption rate for FSR than Nvidia has managed to achieve with DLSS, while also being able to run on a wide variety of hardware from both companies. Meanwhile, support for Intel’s XeSS is expected to land sometime in the coming months in titles like Death Stranding Director’s Cut, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Enlisted, and Dolmen.
