The demon Lilith and the angel Inarius united to create the world of Sanctuary in their desire to escape the Eternal Conflict between the High Heavens and Burning Hells. But now, decades after the events of Diablo® III: Reaper of Souls®, they are bitter enemies who have resorted to war against each other with their respective followers. The lands of Sanctuary have become plagued with ceaseless demons, and only the most steadfast of heroes will be able to hold strong in the face of darkness in Diablo® IV.

Enter the world of Diablo IV with your choice of five classes—the shapeshifting Druids, agile Rogues, elemental Sorcerer, brutal Barbarians, and cunning Necromancers. Grow in power, build your class in numerous ways, experimenting with skill trees to showcase complimenting spells and abilities, and take the battle to the demon Lilith.

Diablo IV On GeForce RTX: The Definitive Way To Play

Press and players love Diablo IV and its technology, having fought their way through Act 1 in the two DLSS 2-enhanced betas, and now in the final game, featuring DLSS 3, DLAA and Reflex:

  • "We highly recommend using DLSS 3" - DSOGaming
  • “Ultimately, the goal is to enhance your Diablo 4 experience, whether that means pursuing the sharpest image possible with DLAA or aiming for the perfect balance of performance and visual quality with DLSS” - Game Revolution
  • “The NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti runs the game without breaking a sweat.”- Sportskeeda
  • “DLSS 3 is really turning out to be a game-changer for NVIDIA.” - Hardwaretimes
  • “NVIDIA GPUs get Diablo IV update that could double your FPS” - Dexerto

Keep reading to see how DLSS 3 can multiply your frame rates by up to 2.5X.

DLSS 3: Day One Support In Diablo IV

Diablo IV officially launches today, June 6th, having previously enabled Digital Deluxe and Ultimate Edition buyers to fight their way through Sanctuary since June 1st. To give GeForce gamers the definitive PC experience, Blizzard and NVIDIA partnered to bring our game-changing technologies to Diablo IV.

GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers can max out frame rates with NVIDIA DLSS 3 Frame Generation, and other GeForce RTX users can accelerate performance with DLSS 2’s critically acclaimed Super Resolution technology.

Powered by new hardware capabilities of the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, DLSS 3 generates entirely new high quality frames, rather than just pixels.

Through a process detailed in full in our NVIDIA DLSS 3 article, DLSS 3 combines DLSS Super Resolution technology and DLSS Frame Generation to reconstruct 7 out of every 8 of the displayed pixels, multiplying performance.

DLSS 3 accelerates frame rates in both GPU and CPU bound scenarios, ensuring your performance is always maxed out, and all DLSS 3 games are backwards compatible with DLSS 2 technology - developers simply integrate DLSS 3, and DLSS 2, also known as DLSS Super Resolution, is supported by default.

In Diablo IV, DLSS 3 helps GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers multiply performance at 4K by an average of 2.5X. In our action-filled benchmark, performance on the GeForce RTX 4090 increased by 2.4X, enabling us to play at 229 frames per second with every single setting maxed out. The GeForce RTX 4080 hit 177 FPS, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ran Diablo IV at 139 FPS, and the GeForce RTX 4070 113 FPS.

At 2560x1440, DLSS 3 enables the GeForce RTX 4070 to play Diablo IV at over 170 frames per second, with frame rates hitting 335 FPS on the GeForce RTX 4090. And at 1920x1080 all GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics cards can play at over 200 FPS.

 

On GeForce RTX 40 Series laptops, DLSS 3 improves performance by an average of 1.8X at 2560x1440, enabling all laptop GPUs to play Diablo IV at over 80 FPS with max settings enabled. At 1080p, DLSS 3 helps all laptop GPUs to run at over 120 FPS, with the power house GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU topping 280 FPS.

 

With such fast frame rates on many GPUs, you may want to supercharge image quality with NVIDIA DLAA, an AI-based anti-aliasing mode that utilizes the same technology developed for DLSS. DLAA uses a native resolution image to maximize image quality, rather than boosting performance, though in Diablo IV, DLAA can be combined with DLSS Frame Generation for the highest possible image quality, and excellent performance.

 

 

 

 

 

Minimize System Latency With NVIDIA Reflex

GeForce gamers can improve responsiveness in Diablo IV by enabling NVIDIA Reflex. NVIDIA Reflex is a must-have in games, reducing system latency so your actions occur quicker, giving you a competitive edge.

Reflex is available in many single-player games and 9 out of 10 of top competitive shooters, is used by over 50 million players each month, and is activated by 90% of GeForce gamers in the 70+ supported titles.

Using Reflex, system latency is reduced by up to 67% in Diablo IV, helping you vanquish the forces of evil, delivering responsiveness in intense battles, helping you stay alive in Hardcore mode, and providing you the ultimate experience against human foes in PvP.

Ray Tracing Is Coming To Diablo IV

Coming in a post-launch update, Diablo IV’s detailed world will be further enhanced through the addition of ray-traced reflections. Sanctuary will be more visually stunning, dungeons will be moodier and more atmospheric, and battles will become even more spectacular.

And thanks to NVIDIA DLSS and the dedicated ray tracing cores found on GeForce RTX GPUs, all GeForce RTX gamers will have the best possible experience when activating the upcoming effects.
