In an exciting announcement, NVIDIA has revealed that it will be supporting the highly anticipated co-op action-adventure game, Gangs of Sherwood, right from its launch. This support comes in the form of DLSS 2 technology, which is set to provide a significant boost to frame rates, and DLAA, an AI-based anti-aliasing mode that enhances image quality.
Gangs of Sherwood, developed by Nacon, takes players on an immersive journey into a reimagined world based on the legendary tale of Robin Hood.
NVIDIA’s DLSS 2 Support
DLSS 2, which stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling, is a cutting-edge technology developed by NVIDIA to enhance gaming performance. By leveraging the power of artificial intelligence, DLSS 2 improves frame rates by an impressive average of 66% at 4K resolution with max settings enabled. This significant boost allows players to enjoy smoother and more fluid gameplay, ensuring a more immersive gaming experience.
To benefit from DLSS 2 support, players will need compatible hardware, including NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPUs. The technology works by rendering the game at a lower resolution and then using AI algorithms to upscale and reconstruct the image, resulting in higher frame rates without sacrificing graphical quality. DLSS 2 has already proven its prowess in other games, such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Control, where players have witnessed substantial performance improvements.
NVIDIA’s DLAA Support
DLAA, or Deep Learning Anti-Aliasing, is another interesting addition to NVIDIA’s arsenal of visual enhancements. While DLSS 2 focuses on boosting performance, DLAA is specifically designed to maximize image quality. By utilizing the same AI-based technology developed for DLSS, DLAA delivers smoother, more detailed, and visually appealing graphics without compromising performance.
Unlike traditional anti-aliasing techniques, which sacrifice image quality to eliminate jagged edges and flickering in-game objects, DLAA employs a native resolution image to achieve superior results. This means that players can enjoy heightened clarity and sharper visuals, further immersing themselves in the stunning environments of Gangs of Sherwood.
Gangs of Sherwood Gameplay
Gangs of Sherwood offers an action-packed cooperative adventure in a world where Robin Hood’s legend is reimagined. Players will step into the shoes of courageous outlaws seeking justice against the oppressive forces led by the Sheriff of Nottingham. With explosive combat and thrilling combos, players will engage in epic battles, all while exploring meticulously designed environments filled with challenges.
The game’s story-driven nature and high replay value may mean that players will be drawn into its immersive narrative. The unique Sci-Fantasy twist on the Robin Hood legend adds a fresh and captivating layer to the gameplay experience, making Gangs of Sherwood a potential must-play for fans of co-op action-adventure games.
