Nvidia expands DLSS 2 support, but DLSS 3 remains elusive

By Monica J. White Published October 20, 2022

Nvidia has shared some happy news today — the library of games that support DLSS is about to expand. With updates coming to plenty of new titles, there’ll be more opportunities to try out DLSS for yourself.

Unfortunately, Nvidia’s cutting-edge DLSS 3 tech is still quite elusive. Only six games are confirmed to support DLSS 3 close to the launch of the RTX 4090.

Nvidia’s new flagship, the beastly RTX 4090, is now here, and you can even try to buy it. Alongside the card itself, Nvidia is unveiling its new DLSS 3 technology. It delivers a marked upgrade over the previous version, with the ability to predict entire frames — it’s likely to bring huge performance boosts across the board. Unfortunately, to start with, Nvidia won’t have too many games up its sleeve in order to entice gamers to try out DLSS 3.

The first DLSS 3 game updates are set to arrive within a week, and one is already out. Super People already supports the tech; Justice ‘Fuyun Court’ and Loopmancer will begin supporting it today, followed by Microsoft Flight Simulator on October 17, and A Plague Tale: Requiem on October 18. F1 22 is also said to be updated soon.

That’s a rather modest list of titles to start with. To be fair, the RTX 4090 is an enthusiast-grade card, so it won’t be all that popular, especially not right off the bat — but it would’ve been nice to see a more robust lineup for the start of it. However, Nvidia plans to expand this list, with a total of 35 titles set to adopt the new DLSS 3 already confirmed.

While DLSS 3 is getting a limited amount of love this time around, the lineup of DLSS 2 games expanded more significantly. Thirteen new games are now supporting DLSS 2, or will be soon, and Nvidia shared the full list.

Batora: Lost Haven – October 20
Blind Fate: Edo no Yami – Out now
Broken Pieces – Out now
Dakar Desert Rally – Out now
Destroy All Humans! 2 – Out now
Gotham Knights Out – October 21
Kena: Bridge of Spirits – Out now
PC Building Simulator 2 – October 12
Q.U.B.E. 10th Anniversary – Out now
Sackboy: A Big Adventure – October 27
Scathe – Out now
SCP: Secret Files – Out now
The Last Oricru Launches – October 13

Nvidia will, undoubtedly, try to expand the range of titles that support DLSS 3 over time. For the time being, it’s only the RTX 4090 that can even use it, but when the two RTX 4080s arrive in November, we might see more gamers picking up an RTX 40-series GPU soon enough.

Your broken Windows 11 PC no longer needs a USB drive to come back to life

The Windows recovery tool we’ve all been waiting for is finally here.

Windows 11

If your Windows PC has ever refused to boot, you know the panic that follows. You scramble to find another computer, download the Windows installer, and create a bootable USB drive just to get your machine running again. Microsoft wants to end that headache with a new feature called Cloud Rebuild.

As reported by Windows Central, Cloud Rebuild lets you perform a full reinstall of Windows 11 without USB media or a custom image. Better yet, it doesn’t depend on your current installation being healthy, so it can even rescue a PC that won’t start.

Now, Granola wants to help you outside your meetings too. The company has added a new voice typing feature that lets you speak instead of type in any app you use. Best of all, every Granola user gets it at no cost, and there’s no cap on how many words you can dictate.
