Here are all the confirmed ray tracing and DLSS games so far

Get your RTX and RDNA 2 graphics cards at the ready

It’s difficult to think about the growing library of ray tracing and/or DLSS games without a sideways glance at DLSS 3. I’ve tried this enhanced upscaler, which slots new, entirely AI-generated frames between traditionally rendered ones for even smoother visuals, and it’s quite the thing. We’re talking double the performance of native 4K in F1 22 and Microsoft Flight Simulator, and up to triple the performance in Cyberpunk 2077 with DLSS 3 in Performance mode.

Sadly, the only currently-available GPU with DLSS 3 compatibility is the RTX 4090, and only a few games have integrated it so far. The total is bound to grow, mind, as you can see by the sheer number of games that support older DLSS versions. These are almost always worth trying if you have an RTX graphics card (not just from the latest RTX 40 series) and are playing at 1440p or 4K – especially so if you’re playing with ray tracing lighting/shadow/reflection effects as well.

Below is our regularly-updated list of all the games, out now or in development, that include ray tracing or DLSS options. I’ve also added a section just for DLSS 3 games at the bottom, so you can keep track if you’re considering the (certainly considerable) investment of an RTX 4090 or the upcoming RTX 4080.

DLSS games you can play right now:

Unlike ray tracing, which works on a lot of different AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs, DLSS require the use of an Nvidia RTX card specifically. It's an AI-powered upscaling technology that helps to boost performance at higher resolutions (particularly when you've got ray tracing enabled), and many of today's big ray tracing games such as Watch Dogs Legion simply aren't playable without it.

The introduction of DLSS 2.0 in games such as Death Stranding marked a real turning point for Nvidia's performance-boosting upscaling tech. Whereas previous DLSS games looked noticeably blurry with DLSS enabled, DLSS 2.0 could often look indistinguishable from a game's native resolution. The latest version is DLSS 2.4, which reduces ghosting and further improves rendering of fast-moving objects.

There are more DLSS games on the way, too. DLSS has now been integrated into both the Unreal Engine and Unity game-making tools now, so it should be much easier for developers to start adding in support for it.

That said, several games Nvidia have announced over the past few years still haven't received their intended DLSS support yet, and consequently I've removed some of the titles that were previously included on this list, as even Nvidia seem to have forgotten about them in their most recent DLSS announcements. Instead, the games below are definitely confirmed to be getting DLSS support, based on the most recent information available to us.

DLSS games on the way:

  • Atomic Heart
  • Black Myth: Wukong
  • Boundary
  • Deliver Us Mars
  • Dying: 1983
  • GRIT
  • Hogwarts Legacy
  • LEAP (available now in early access)
  • Marauders (available now in early access)
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
  • Midnight Ghost Hunt (available now in early access)
  • On Air
  • Perish
  • Portal with RTX
  • Ratten Reich
  • Ripout
  • SCP: Pandemic (available now in early access)
  • STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl
  • Synced: Off-Planet
  • System Shock (available now in the demo)
  • The Anacrusis (available now in early access)
  • The Chant
  • The Day Before
  • The Lord of the Rings: Gollum
  • Throne and Liberty
  • Tower of Fantasy
  • Turbo Sloths
  • Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2
  • Voidtrain
  • Warhammer 40,000: Darktide
  • WRC Generations - The FIA WRC Official Game

DLSS 3 games you can play right now:

I’ve written the word “frames” way too much today.

DLSS 3 is a generational step up from previous versions. It still works by rendering frames at a lower resolution, then upscaling them, but DLSS 3 will also be able to add brand new frames that Nvidia’s AI tech generates itself (using data from surrounding frames). These interpolated frames are snuck in-between the rendered frames, boosting overall FPS even more.

There are some downsides: this technique increases input latency, so might not be great for pacey competitive games, and it will only be available if you’re running an GeForce RTX 40 series GPU. Still, it works well from what I've played, with particularly impactful FPS boosts at 4K. Here are the games that already have DLSS 3 up, running, and playable:

  • A Plague Tale: Requiem
  • Bright Memory: Infinite
  • F1 22
  • FIST: Forged In Shadow Torch
  • Justice
  • Loopmancer
  • Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered
  • Microsoft Flight Simulator
  • Super People

DLSS 3 games on the way:

Some of these games are already out but are waiting on a patch to add DLSS 3; others will launch in the future with DLSS 3 ready to go.
  • Atomic Heart
  • Black Myth: Wukong
  • Chernobylite
  • Conqueror's Blade
  • Cyberpunk 2077
  • Dakar Desert Rally
  • Deliver Us Mars
  • Destroy All Humans! 2 - Reprobed
  • Dying Light 2
  • Hitman 3
  • Hogwarts Legacy
  • Icarus
  • Jurassic World Evolution 2
  • Marauders
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
  • Midnight Ghost Hunt
  • Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord
  • Naraka: Bladepoint
  • Perish
  • Portal with RTX
  • Ripout
  • STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl
  • Scathe
  • Sword and Fairy 7
  • Synced
  • The Lord of the Rings: Gollum
  • The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition
  • Throne and Liberty
  • Tower of Fantasy
  • Warhammer 40,000: Darktide

Unreal Engines 4 and 5, Unity, and the Frostbite Engine will all be DLSS 3 compatible, so you can expect this list to grow just as the ‘old’ DLSS lists above have done.
