The new partnership sees AMD teaming with Ubisoft for The Division 2 in 2019, and Capcom for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Remember that the original The Division was optimized for NVIDIA, but its sequel will be optimized for Radeon which is similar to Far Cry 5 (also an Ubisoft game) that was optimized for AMD.

AMD has also teamed with Rebellion Developments for Strange Brigade, with the company teaming with the developer previously on Sniper Elite 3 in the last. One of the surprises from this news is that Capcom producer Peter Fabiano announced on-stage that the Resident Evil 2 remake will support both DX12 and FreeSync 2.
