Mortal Kombat 1 gets DLSS 2 support, DLSS 3 comes to ICARUS, and Starfield gets a RTX boost

With a cinematic campaign, over-the-top action, and a long list of fan-favorite characters ready to dish up some Fatalities, Mortal Kombat 1 is on track for launch on PC and consoles on September 19.

As part of its weekly DLSS announcement and recap, NVIDIA has confirmed that DLSS 2 Super Resolution will be available on day one, with the tech ensuring "GeForce RTX gamers hit a locked 60 frames per second in every match, with every setting maxed out." And to celebrate the arrival of Mortal Kombat 1, be sure to watch the epic launch trailer.

And to prepare you for the game, the latest GeForce Game Ready 537.34 WHQL driver adds full support to Mortal Kombat 1 and Lies of P - a highly anticipated Souls-like inspired by the world of Pinocchio. NVIDIA also notes that the latest driver improves Starfield performance by an average of 5% across all GeForce RTX 30 and 40 Series GPUs thanks to a new Resizable BAR profile for the game.

This week, the other big DLSS addition is DLSS 3 Frame Generation, coming to ICARUS, the latest co-op survival game from Dean Hall and RocketWerkz. It arrives alongside the game's New Frontiers expansion, adding new biomes, alien creatures, a new map, and more open-world action. With DLSS 3 max settings, performance in 4K is boosted by an average of 2.6X across the GeForce RTX 40 Series.
