BULKHEAD and Team 17’s WARDOGS is an All-Out Warfare FPS that combines tactical gunplay and combined arms combat with building and destruction mechanics in a large open map, where one hundred players split across three teams fight over the control zone. The team with the most players within the Control Zone earns points, and the first team to reach 100 points wins the match. The variables in zone location and individual player tactics mean no match ever plays out the same.

Each life, you purchase a custom loadout from a wide selection of weapons, gear, utility, and vehicles to help your team win the match. Every teamplay action you perform rewards cash. From reviving squadmates, transporting friendlies to the zone, or controlling the objective. Cash persists from match to match, so spending big on better gear, equipment, or a vehicle at the right time has the potential to turn the tide of battle and could yield massive returns.

WARDOGS has wracked up over 1.5 million Wishlists, over 500,000 gamers played the August closed beta, and BULKHEAD has announced that the eagerly-anticipated shooter will officially enter Early Access on September 10th.

GeForce RTX gamers entering WARDOGS’ warzones will discover day-one support for DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution and Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, enhancing image quality and accelerating performance, for the best possible experience. And NVIDIA Reflex will optimize PC latency, ensuring your actions occur faster, potentially giving you a competitive advantage on the game’s massive battlefields.

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS is the high-stakes winner-take-all free-to-play shooter that started the Battle Royale craze. Drop into diverse maps, loot unique weapons and supplies, and survive in an ever-shrinking zone where every turn could be your last.

On September 10th, the perpetually-popular PUBG will add support for DLSS Super Resolution, which players can upgrade to our latest DLSS 4.5 models by using NVIDIA app’s DLSS overrides, accelerating performance and enhancing image quality in every match and mode.

In the critically-acclaimed, multi-million selling 007 First Light, follow James Bond as a young, resourceful and sometimes reckless recruit in MI6's training program, and discover a reimagined origin story of the world’s most famous spy. Incorporating IO Interactive’s signature stealth gameplay with world class James Bond action, you’ll embark on missions in breathtaking locations around the globe, drive iconic vehicles, and dive into a cinematic adventure in pursuit of a rogue agent who’s always one step ahead.

Since launch, 007 First Light has included DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution and Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, accelerating frame rates and enhancing image quality for GeForce RTX gamers. On September 15th, path tracing and DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction will be added to 007 First Light, introducing extra-immersive, extra-detailed lighting, shadows and reflections, making its levels and set pieces even more cinematic.

If you’re away from home and your GeForce RTX PC or laptop, or simply don’t have a GeForce RTX system capable of playing 007: First Light with path tracing, you can still experience the game at its very best by streaming it from the cloud to nearly any device with an Ultimate GeForce NOW membership.

Gaijin Entertainment's Active Matter is a hardcore military online PvPvE, PvE and PvP shooter set in a multiverse shattered by a quantum catastrophe. Each player controls an operative stuck in a time loop, always brought back from the dead to the same point, and enters quantum unstable zones rich with active matter - a substance capable of warping and ripping the very fabric of space and time.

Rivals from other timelines, physics-breaking anomalies that change gravitational force, and ethereal beings stand in the way. Players harvest active matter, collect the loot and extract to a safe area before the whole zone ceases to exist with everything inside it.

Active Matter launches on Steam on September 15th, following the release of an Early Version via the game’s official website last year. The launch version adds new content, and includes support for DLSS 4.5 with Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction, and Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, which accelerate and enhance image quality, and give you the performance headroom to activate the game’s ray-traced reflections, and ray-traced shadows settings.

Gamers can also dive into Active Matter even without the latest hardware by streaming it on GeForce NOW at launch on September 15th.

Pawprint Studios' Aniimo is a free-to-play, next-gen creature-catching open-world RPG. Players can explore the vast continent of Idyll, alive with beauty and the perfect setting to capture, to Twine, to find answers and for the Aniimo themselves to reach their full potential. Challenge, race, discover... immersive exploration ensures every step of the journey is engaging. Whether they're gliding, diving, burrowing... players can step foot anywhere, solo or with friends.

Aniimo officially launches on September 16th, featuring day-one support for DLSS 4.5 with Super Resolution and Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, giving GeForce RTX enhanced image quality and accelerated performance.

And in early 2027, Aniimo will introduce support for NVIDIA ACE, enabling players to interact with their creatures:

Instead of navigating traditional menus, players will interact with their Aniimo using natural language. Chat with them, teach them new skills, and dispatch them to gather resources via voice inputs. Each Aniimo will display dynamic emotions based on player responses, fostering a more authentic and meaningful connection with the creatures that live and work alongside them.

The NVIDIA ACE integration is powered by a locally-hosted, fine-tuned Nemotron Small Language Model (SLM) running on a player’s GPU. This powers each Aniimo's intelligence, allowing them to interpret player intent and trigger in-game behavior APIs for realistic actions and reactions.
