The company AMD has officially announced the release of FSR 3 technology, which enhances frame rates and will be the latest addition to the FidelityFX ecosystem. The company has emphasized that FSR 3 will be compatible not only with AMD graphics cards but also with NVIDIA and Intel graphics accelerators, as well as consoles.
During the Gaming Festival 2023 event at Gamescom, the company revealed that the technology will be featured in Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum, making them the first games to support FSR 3. In early 2024, AMD plans to release a technology that will incorporate a frame generation upscaler into thousands of games.
Almost 10 months have passed since AMD introduced FSR 3 alongside its RDNA 3 graphics processors. At that time, AMD promised gamers a twofold performance boost compared to FSR 2, and it was later revealed that the company intends to utilize frame interpolation similar to NVIDIA’s DLSS 3 technology to achieve this significant improvement.
However, there had been no updates on AMD’s FSR 3 until the Gaming Festival 2023 event at Gamescom, where the company announced its inclusion in Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum as the first games to support FSR 3.
It is interesting that AMD chose Forspoken, considering the game’s lukewarm reception. Despite being the only PC game to utilize Microsoft’s DirectStorage API, it lacks any standout features. In our game review, we were unimpressed with its visuals, which is unfortunate considering it was one of the first games developed on the Unreal Engine 5.
Meanwhile, Immortals of Aveum is not a particularly large game either and has received mixed reviews. Despite being only a week old, it reached a peak of less than 1000 concurrent players on PC. The game utilizes Unreal Engine 5.1, and while the graphics are noteworthy, it demands high graphics performance.
So far, games on UE5 have been underwhelming, to say the least. It is becoming a trend for developers to rely on upscaling technologies like DLSS and FSR to achieve playable PC ports. Fortunately, both of these games (Forspoken with a mod) also offer DLSS 3, making it easy to compare performance and visual details with AMD’s FSR 3 technology.
AMD has stated that FSR 3 can be easily integrated into FSR 2-based games, but we will have to wait and see how it is implemented in these games.
