NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 technology rollout

Overview

NVIDIA’s DLSS 4.5 technology is being integrated into several major video game titles. Early implementations include support for Gears of War: E-Day, Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, and pre-order availability for Phantom Blade Zero. During Gamescom 2026, NVIDIA officially unveiled DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction, marking a technical shift from a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to a second-generation Transformer-based architecture. This model utilizes 20 percent more parameters and offers a 35 percent increase in computational efficiency to reduce ghosting and temporal noise. The technology is available for GeForce RTX graphics cards via the NVIDIA App, supported by the release of the GeForce Game Ready Driver 616.56 WHQL for Windows 10 and 11. This driver facilitates the rollout of the Ray Reconstruction update, which replaces multiple manually configured denoisers with a unified neural model that processes motion vectors, depth, and surface data to reconstruct pixels. NVIDIA also highlighted progress on RTX Spark, a Windows on Arm ecosystem scheduled for launch this fall. On September 22, 2026, NVIDIA released the GeForce Game Ready 617.14 WHQL driver to optimize performance for high-end titles. This update targets AION 2, which will utilize DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution and Multi Frame Generation, and CONTROL Resonant, which is scheduled for release on September 24 with support for path tracing and DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction. The driver also provides optimizations for Gears of War: E-Day and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, while addressing launch bugs for titles such as Judgment and VR战士 5 R.E.V.O., and resolving connectivity issues for Samsung Odyssey G95NC monitors. By October 6, 2026, NVIDIA released GeForce Game Ready driver version 617.42, providing optimizations for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, Valor Mortis, and preparations for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
