Our new GeForce Game Ready driver is optimized for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout Open Beta, and the Early Access release of Assetto Corsa Competizione. To download and install, simply fire up GeForce Experience and click the "Drivers" tab.

Game Ready For Shadow of the Tomb Raider

Lara Croft’s story continues this week with the release of Crystal Dynamics’ Shadow of the Tomb Raider. This time, Lara sets off for South America, hot on the trail of Trinity and new relics hidden in the titular tombs.

As with Rise of the Tomb Raider, Lara’s adventure looks and plays best on PC thanks to the addition of graphics-enhancing technologies, faster framerates, and higher rendering resolutions. For a taste, check out the Shadow of the Tomb Raider tech trailer below.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider visuals will be further enhanced by the addition of NVIDIA RTX Ray-Traced Shadows in a post-release patch. These new, cutting-edge shadows mirror reality closer than any shadow technique seen previously, delivering lifelike videogame shadowing for the very first time. To learn more, check out our Shadow of the Tomb Raider NVIDIA RTX article, and the video below.

If you’re eager to start playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider, customers who pre-order the Croft Edition or Deluxe Edition of the game get early access from September 12th, with the general release following on September 14th. For further details, head to the game’s Steam store page.

For the best possible experience, be sure to download and install the new Game Ready driver, which contains day-1 fixes and improvements that ensure a fantastic time from the second you hit Play.

Game Ready For Other Anticipated Titles

The new Game Ready driver is also a must-have if you’re intending to play the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout PC Open Beta later this week, or the Early Access release of sim-racer Assetto Corsa Competizione.

Performance, stability, and all-round optimization is improved with Game Ready drivers, so it’s recommended you download and install to ensure the best possible experience from the second you hit play.

Call of Duty®: Black Ops 4 Blackout PC Open Beta

In Blackout, the Black Ops universe comes to life in one massive Battle Royale experience, combining Black Ops’ signature combat and the biggest map in Call of Duty history. Play as fan favorite characters, and battle through iconic settings from the Black Ops universe.

It’s a collision course bringing together the worlds of Black Ops in an all-out survival and elimination experience featuring weapons, equipment, land, air and sea vehicles, and even Zombies, in an experience that is uniquely Black Ops.

Starting September 14th at 10am PT, PC pre-purchase customers can gain access to the early access day of the Blackout PC Open Beta*. Then on September 15th at 10am PT, all gamers with a Blizzard Battle.net account can join in the fun via the Blizzard Battle.net Desktop App, until the Open Beta concludes on September 17th at 10am PT.
