ThoughLords of the Fallenis graphically impressive, it can be taxing on some systems. However, Nvidia confirmed that the game will utilize options including Nvidia’s DLSS3 to give players options for improving performance on PC. For PC players that havea compatible graphics card such as the Nvidia RTX 4060, both DLSS and FSR options will be available in the Display settings ofLords of the Fallen. In addition, Nvidia DLSS will be able to take advantage of frame generation and Nvidia’s image-sharpening technologies.
In addition, Twitch Partner Lirik confirmed in a recent stream that AMD’s FSR will also be an option for gamers to pick from, but the stream was deleted for unknown reasons. Though DLSS is exclusive to compatible Nvidia RTX graphics cards,AMD’s FSR3 technology is implemented at the software leveland can be used by most modern graphics cards. While DLSS is generally considered the preferable technology by gamers, AMD is busy implementing its own frame generation technology on a per-game basis to complement the upscaling that FSR provides. Though time will tell how many games will implement FSR3 in the future,Lords of the FallenjoinsForspokenandImmortals of Aveumon the list of games that do at the time of writing.
