DRAGON’S DOGMA 2 Unlocks DLSS 3 for RTX 40 GPUs

Modder PureDark has released a mod that allows Dragon’s Dogma 2 players with RTX 40 series GPUs to enable DLSS 3 Frame Generation, potentially boosting frame rates by 20 to 30 fps. While Dragon's Dogma 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the original action RPG, launched with performance issues related to heavy CPU usage, this mod offers a solution by activating the game’s hidden DLSS 3 Frame Generation feature. However, players should be cautious, as some reports indicate potential crashes and freezes. Capcom has apologized for the performance issues on Steam and is working on a patch that will also introduce DLSS Frame Generation officially.

What is DLSS 3 Frame Generation and how does it affect Dragon's Dogma 2 gameplay?

DLSS 3 Frame Generation is Nvidia's third-generation of Deep Learning Super Sampling technology designed to boost frame rates in supported PC games. It generates frames in real-time using AI, which is particularly useful for games limited by GPU and CPU capabilities. In Dragon's Dogma 2, enabling DLSS 3 through the mod could significantly enhance the game's performance by increasing the frame rate, though it may come with a risk of crashes.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is an action role-playing game developed and published by Capcom, serving as a sequel to Dragon's Dogma, which originally released in 2012. The first game was known for its unique "pawn" system, open-world exploration, and engaging combat mechanics. It gained a cult following due to its deep customization options and the way it combined Western RPG mechanics with Japanese game design sensibilities. With this sequel, fans have been eager to see improvements and enhancements to the original's formula while maintaining the core elements that made the initial game memorable.
