Days Gone is an open-world action-adventure game, set in a harsh wilderness two years after a devastating global pandemic. Step into the dirt flecked shoes of former outlaw biker Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter trying to find a reason to live in a land surrounded by death. Scavenge through abandoned settlements for equipment to craft valuable items and weapons, or take your chances with other survivors trying to eke out a living through fair trade... or more violent means.

Explore the Pacific Northwest on Deacon’s motorcycle, fight vicious gangs and roaming hordes of Freakers, lethal mutants who swarm and attack en masse, and unravel a looming mystery in this critically-acclaimed game.

Two years after its console release, Days Gone launches on PC today, with increased levels of detail, higher foliage draw distances, native 4K rendering, a configurable field of view, ultra-wide monitor support, unlocked frame rates, and a raft of other PC features outlined in the official FAQ.

NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is a groundbreaking AI rendering technology that increases graphics performance using dedicated Tensor Core AI processors on GeForce RTX GPUs. NVIDIA DLSS taps into the power of a deep learning neural network to boost frame rates and generate beautiful, sharp images for your games. For this reason, developers are adopting the technology en masse, and this month 9 games are either launching with DLSS, or adding it for players via updates.

You can get the complete lowdown on this month’s additions in our dedicated NVIDIA DLSS article, and a quick summary below:

• AMID EVIL: Much loved retro shooter gets an update today, adding ray-traced effects and NVIDIA DLSS, which amps up performance by up to 2.7X at 4K.
• Aron’s Adventure: The action-adventure RPG recently added NVIDIA DLSS using our Unreal Engine 4 plugin, and players saw performance leap by up to 60%.
• Everspace 2: The Early Access space RPG-shooter will be updated today with support for DLSS, increasing performance by up to 80%.
• No Man’s Sky: An upcoming update adds NVIDIA DLSS, accelerating performance by up to 70% at 4K on desktops.
• Redout: Space Assault: Space shooter adds NVIDIA DLSS today, along with ray-traced reflections and shadows, for a more immersive experience.
  
• Scavengers: Free-to-play shooter launched earlier this month with NVIDIA DLSS, boosting performance for GeForce RTX gamers by up to 40%.
• Wrench: Mechanic sim adds ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS, and on desktops performance is doubled at 4K when ray tracing is enabled.

DLSS has changed gaming forever by using AI powered by RTX Tensor Cores and a deep learning neural network to boost frame rates and generate beautiful, sharp images for games. DLSS delivers the performance headroom to maximize quality settings and increase output resolution.

Now, this revolutionary technology has been applied to frame rate-hungry virtual reality titles for the first time. The first VR titles that support NVIDIA DLSS are:

• No Man’s Sky: An upcoming update adds NVIDIA DLSS, doubling your framerates in Virtual Reality at the Ultra graphics preset, maintaining 90 FPS on an Oculus Quest 2 with a GeForce RTX 3080.
• Into The Radius VR: Using NVIDIA DLSS, players will discover a noticeable improvement to anti-aliasing, which greatly reduces shimmering and stair-stepping on objects and foliage, further enhancing image quality and immersion.
• Wrench: Ray tracing and DLSS comes to VR in a new update, boosting performance by up to 80% in VR, for a faster, smoother experience, and giving players the headroom to enable new ray-traced effects.
