Dying Light: The Beast is out September 19, and is Dying Light 3 in all but name, with players once again taking on the role of the first game's protagonist, Kyle Crane. This one is set to lean into the survival horror aspects of the franchise while maintaining the free-form, acrobatic open-world exploration that has become a hallmark of Techland's zombie series.

Both Borderlands 4 and Dying Light: The Beast are launching with DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation support, which includes the latest 'Transformer' powered version of DLSS Super Resolution for all GeForce RTX gamers. Dying Light: The Beast is also set to launch with a suite of ray-tracing effects that cover reflections, shadows, and global illumination, providing enhanced and immersive cinematic visuals.

When it comes to Borderlands 4's performance, NVIDIA notes in the GeForce Game Ready Driver 581.29 announcement that with DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, performance is improved by up to 5.5X. And with NVIDIA Reflex, PC latency is reduced by up to 54%. Borderlands 4 is part of the latest GeForce RTX 50 Series bundle, where buying an eligible RTX 50 Series desktop graphics card or laptop gets you a free copy of the game and the 'Gilded Glory Pack' pre-order bonus.
