Three New Games Get DLSS Upgrades, Including Skull and Bones, and Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Last week, DLSS was available at launch in the Stormgate Steam Next Fest demo, and in The Inquisitor. Additionally, DLSS was also available for players of the new Atomic Heart: Trapped In Limbo expansion, and the newly-released Call of Duty®: Warzone™ Season 2.

This week, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden launches with DLSS 3, while Smalland: Survive the Wilds and Skull and Bones launch with DLSS 2.

Focus Entertainment and DON’T NOD’s Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is available now. In New Eden, 1695, communities of settlers are plagued by a dreadful curse. As Banishers, step into their lives, investigate the source of evil, unravel chilling mysteries, explore diverse landscapes, and interact with unforgettable characters whose fate lies in your hands. Immerse yourself in an intimate narrative Action-RPG, taking you on an exhilarating journey between life, death, love and sacrifices.

When Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden launches, GeForce RTX gamers could immediately accelerate performance thanks to the inclusion of DLSS 2 and DLSS 3. At 4K, with max settings enabled, GeForce RTX 40 Series users will see performance increase by 1.8X on average. This DLSS upgrade enables the GeForce RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 SUPER to surpass 144 FPS at 4K, allows GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER owners to game at over 120 FPS, and sees owners of the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER play at well over 100 FPS.

If your frame rates are fast enough already, NVIDIA DLAA is included, too. This AI-based anti-aliasing mode utilizes the same technology developed for DLSS, but DLAA instead uses a native resolution image to maximize image quality, rather than boosting performance, for an even richer experience.

Experience a big adventure on a tiny scale, in Merge Games’ Smalland: Survive the Wilds, a single-player and co-op survival and building game set in a world where you’re even smaller than an insect, making you a tempting meal. Craft weapons and armor, tame and ride creatures, build encampments and explore the strange new land, with up to 10 players in co-op.

From day one of Early Access, Smalland: Survive the Wilds has featured support for DLSS 2, and on February 15th the game exits Early Access with the launch of its 1.0 update, featuring the conclusion of the game’s story, and more new content. For the best experience, ensure you enable DLSS 2 to supersize your frame rate in Smalland: Survive the Wilds.

Developed by Ubisoft Singapore in collaboration with other Ubisoft studios, Skull and Bones is a co-op open world pirate action RPG where you play by your own rules to become the most infamous pirate kingpin and build your smuggling empire in a perilous world. Craft a variety of unique ships, forge unlikely alliances, and take part in thrilling naval battles as you overcome the odds and bring mayhem to the seas. Be part of an immersive world that introduces new challenges and features every season.

When Skull and Bones launches on February 16th, PC gamers can activate Ray-Traced Global Illumination lighting to enhance image quality, and can accelerate performance with DLSS 2. Get the game three days early on February 13th by purchasing the Premium Edition, or by subscribing to Ubisoft+. And download our new Game Ready Driver to further optimize your experience in Skull and Bones.
