Your Radeon RX 9000 gets FSR Redstone first in Black Ops 7

What’s happened? AMD says its new FSR Redstone tech lands in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and it’s starting on Radeon RX 9000 Series cards. The rollout pairs FSR Redstone Ray Regeneration with machine learning frame generation, and it goes live in-game tomorrow.

  • AMD confirmed availability via its AMD Gaming account on X, calling out RX 9000 support.
  • Black Ops 7 is “built from the ground up” with AMD tech, said SVP Jack Huynh in an accompanying video.
  • The goal, per Huynh, is “stunning visuals and ultra smooth gameplay,” including a new co-op campaign, Omni movement, and a huge round-based zombies map.
  • AMD also noted every Call of Duty NEXT demo rig ran Ryzen X3D processors and Radeon graphics, and reiterated the November 14 launch.

This is important because: Black Ops 7 gives AMD a flashy stage to debut FSR Redstone in a game millions already plan to play. That visibility matters, especially when you’re talking ray features and higher frame targets.

  • Radeon RX 9000 owners get one of the earliest public trials of Redstone’s ray regeneration and frame boosting.
  • The showcase positions AMD as a core partner on how the PC version is tuned and presented.
  • Tying a marquee shooter to new rendering features helps AMD prove its performance story inside real gameplay.

Why should I care? If you play on PC, Black Ops 7 doubles as a live demo for AMD’s latest features. You can tweak, test, and actually feel what Redstone does in matches rather than watch sizzle reels.

  • Redstone aims to keep motion smooth while the game piles on fast Omni movement and messy zombie crowds.
  • With AMD embedded through Call of Duty NEXT, PC players who chase stable frame times have a clear hardware path.

Okay, so what’s next? The game launches November 14, and AMD is treating that window as Redstone’s coming-out party on RX 9000. Expect more detail on settings and specs as players dig in.

  • If you already run RX 9000, Black Ops 7 is where to flip Redstone on and try its ML frame generation in live matches.
  • AMD calls the partnership about “pushing boundaries together,” so watch for deeper PC settings breakdowns as more players get hands on.
  • Even on other hardware, this is an early look at how big shooters may use AMD’s next rendering wave.

A leaked internal memo suggests the next Xbox console, codenamed Project Helix, could play games from every generation the company has ever released. If true, that would make it the largest game library on any console, especially since it's also said to support PC games.

Backward compatibility for four console generations

The fate of physical game discs seems to be set in stone, with an all-digital library becoming increasingly inevitable. Microsoft, though, may at least give Xbox owners a way to bring their shelves full of physical games along for the journey.

A leaked Microsoft roadmap sent to game publishers details the planned rollout of Xbox’s Disc-to-Digital program alongside a much larger backwards-compatibility push. The document reportedly targets August for general availability, October for the full launch of original Xbox games on PC, and a gradual Xbox 360 rollout beginning in 2027.

Gaming mice usually let you adjust sensitivity, polling rate, and button assignments through software. Pwnage’s new Vanta goes a step further by letting you physically change how each primary click feels.

The company describes the Vanta as the world’s first lightweight gaming mouse with mechanically adjustable clicks. Turning a pair of screws changes how much force and movement the left and right buttons require, without replacing the switches or adding more electronics.
