Crimson Moon launches today, with The Blood of Dawnwalker and Onimusha: Way of the Sword launching this Thursday, along with NBA 2K27, which debuts DLSS 5 with 3D-Guided Neural Rendering.

NVIDIA has continuously redefined the boundaries of PC gaming. From introducing real-time ray tracing to pioneering AI-powered graphics with DLSS Super Resolution, Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction, our RTX technologies have transformed how games are rendered and experienced.

On September 3rd we’re releasing DLSS 5, which introduces 3D-Guided Neural Rendering, a major step forward in using AI to bring real-time graphics closer than ever to Hollywood-grade photorealism.

Watch how DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering and its artistic controls work from Edward Liu, NVIDIA’s Director of Applied Deep Learning Research, and Gabriele Leone, Director of Content Technology

DLSS 5 will be available starting September 3rd at 9pm Pacific Time in NBA 2K27, by developer Visual Concepts and publisher 2K, for all GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and laptops, and GeForce NOW. It marks the debut of how the technology can be used by game artists to elevate visual fidelity in alignment with their creative vision.

“What’s great is the level of control that it gives us. We can set the overall tone and style to match our existing art direction and then really get precise where it matters most, using a per pixel uplift control mask to fine tune detail on characters. Given that we want to respect their likeness with the utmost care.” - Peter Kavic, Senior Producer - Visual Concepts

Command an elite squad through a gritty and authentic story in Bit Reactor and Electronic Arts’ STAR WARS Zero Company™, a single-player turn-based tactics game set in the twilight of the Clone Wars™. Step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company as they are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked.

Strategize and adapt at both your base of operations and an ever-shifting battlefield to make every move count — the outcomes of your decisions make each playthrough different. Deploy a team of operatives composed of a variety of archetypes, ranging from scoundrels to astromechs, or even a Jedi, choosing from an arsenal of tactical abilities to outmaneuver and defeat your foes. And improve your squad’s skills as you deploy them on missions, where they learn to work together and unlock new combat synergies that could be the difference between victory and defeat. 

STAR WARS Zero Company™ has released, with day-one support for DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution and Multi Frame Generation, enhancing image quality and accelerating frame rates in this critically acclaimed title.

Cold Iron Studios and Daybreak Game Company’s Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 drops up to four players into the boots of Colonial Marines deployed to the most hostile corners of the Aliens universe. This is not a rescue mission – it’s a fight for survival. Xenomorphs stalk the corridors, ambush from the shadows, and swarm in overwhelming numbers. Every room could be your last. Coordinate with your fireteam, leverage each class’s unique abilities, and adapt on the fly as encounters escalate from tense standoffs to all-out war. With deeper squad mechanics, smarter enemies, and a fully customizable Specialist class, Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 builds upon the well-received original to deliver the definitive co-op Aliens experience. 

GeForce RTX gamers fighting for survival in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 can activate DLSS Super Resolution to accelerate frame rates in the game’s most intense moments, with an NVIDIA app upgrade to DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution further enhancing image quality.

ProbablyMonsters’ Crimson Moon is a single-player and co-op gothic high renaissance action-adventure RPG built around intense, replayable missions. Players take on the role of the Nephilim, ruthless human-angel hybrids forged to defend humanity. They're immersed in a blood-soaked power fantasy as they battle their way through the besieged city of Gildenarch using combat that blends brutal precision with deep character progression.

Players who are strong and skilled enough to fight through three districts of Gildenarch in a row will face a world boss. These epic, monstrous foes will test players’ mastery of their divine abilities, and players can only face the hellish final boss once they’ve defeated all three world bosses.

Crimson Moon launches later today, with DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution, Multi Frame Generation, and NVIDIA Reflex.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is Capcom’s all-new action game set in a dark fantasy Japan where samurai clash with the supernatural. The story fuses history and myth, following the journey of Miyamoto Musashi, a samurai armed with a mystical Oni Gauntlet, as he battles Genma invading Edo-period Kyoto. Onimusha: Way of the Sword features intense action that combines the series’ signature Issen and Soul Absorption mechanics with exhilarating swordplay that takes combat to new heights.

If you’re interested in the game, Capcom has an Onimusha: Way of the Sword demo available, giving players a chunk of gameplay and story to experience.

On GeForce RTX PCs and laptops, players can enhance and accelerate their experience in the demo and full game using DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution, Multi Frame Generation, DLAA, and NVIDIA Reflex. And by activating the Ray Tracing setting, the fidelity and clarity of reflections are improved. Additionally, your system can be benchmarked with DLSS 4.5 and ray tracing with a separate utility, which is available for download from Steam.

If you like what you see in the demo, Onimusha: Way of the Sword pre-orders are available now on all platforms, with the full game launching this Thursday, September 3rd, at 9pm PT.

Rebel Wolves and Bandai Namco Entertainment’s The Blood of Dawnwalker is an open-world dark fantasy action RPG set in 14th-century Europe. Bloody conflicts sweep the lands, and the Black Death comes for the survivors. Vampires seize their opportunity to walk out of the shadows and claim what they've been denied for centuries: freedom, and the power that comes with it. Other creatures of the night follow their lead. Legends turn into reality, and history as we know it will never be the same.

You play as Coen, a young man turned into a Dawnwalker, forever treading the line between the world of day and the realm of night. Fight for your humanity or embrace the cursed powers to save your family. Whatever your choice, the question stands: is your soul worth the lives of those you love?

The Blood of Dawnwalker launches this Thursday with support for DLSS Super Resolution, which can be upgraded to DLSS 4.5 via the NVIDIA app, enabling all GeForce RTX gamers to enhance image quality and accelerate frame rates.

NC has announced LIKE OR DIE, a new team-based survival FPS. Players take control of fictional streamers, battling in massive arenas, with their fights for survival broadcast live on the “Quaya Stream” pan-universal streaming platform, where actions, victories and deaths affect the number of Likes you receive.

Ultimately, your team needs to destroy enemy Nexus respawn points, while defending your own, otherwise your next death will be your last, and your team will be knocked out of the competition, which won’t do your Like count any favors. Helping you gain the edge on enemies is the Block Gun - create cover, build bridges across gaps, gain access to advantageous elevated positions, and outfox your opponents during battle. But each block can also be destroyed, so if you time it right, you can send a foe plummeting by destroying their ad hoc bridge, or tear down their cover, enabling you to safely snipe them at range.

Take a first look at LIKE OR DIE in its debut trailer, and our exclusive DLSS 4.5 gameplay video:

For updates about LIKE OR DIE, Wishlist the game on Steam.
