NVIDIA has launched a new GeForce Game Ready driver (version 572.83) tailored for recently released and upcoming games. This update boosts performance in the Half-Life 2 RTX demo with the power of the NVIDIA RTX suite, enabling next-level graphics. It also tunes Control’s newest patch introducing Ultra Ray Tracing preset (up to 4.5 rays per pixel), higher quality textures, better texture streaming throughput, ultra-wide support up to 48:9, Field of View slider, HDR, and a new version of DLSS (3.7). Through the NVIDIA app, players can override this and have DLSS 4 use the new transformer model.
NVIDIA’s Latest Driver Adds DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation Support for The Last of Us Part II and Darktide
The optimizations also extend to the newly released Assassin’s Creed Shadows, which adds DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation with the NVIDIA app override, and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. While not a new release, Darktide is getting an update next week that will add native support for DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation. Ahead of inZOI launching in early access on March 28 with DLSS Super Resolution and NVIDIA ACE technology for ‘Smart Zoi’ NPCs, players intending to give the life simulation game a shot should also download the driver.
This feature utilizes a. 5 billion parameter Mistral NeMo Minitron small language model for high-quality, low-latency outputs and is available exclusively on GeForce RTX GPUs. NVIDIA also revealed that The Last of Us Part II Remastered goes to PC on April 3 and the game will support DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, or DLSS Super Resolution, Frame Generation, and Reflex.
The accompanying Game Ready driver also implements some bug fixes, dealing with problems such as overclocked RTX 5080/5090 cards failing to hit full speed on reboot, crashes that resulted in a black screen for RTX 50 series GPUs, the setting in the NVIDIA Control Panel or NVIDIA App resetting or being presented as an error, the system crashing during gameplay when HDR is enabled, Optix compile errors in VRED 2026, and stability issues with Derivative TouchDesigner.
