God of War PC features revealed

Sony recently announced the latest PlayStation exclusive making its way to PC: God of War. While a technical showpiece on PS4, the game is being pushed much further with this PC release, and the console manufacturer has now announced many of the improvements that PC players can look forward to.

God of War on PS4 Pro already looked and played great. The PS5 patch later allowed the game to run at 60fps, while maintaining the graphical quality of the PS4 Pro. The upcoming PC version, which is set to release on the 14th of January 2022, will go many steps beyond this.

Sony has so far confirmed that the game on PC will offer a native 4K resolution and fully unlocked framerates, allowing you to go far beyond 60fps. Furthermore, being a PC game, there will be a plethora of tweakable options, including “higher resolution shadows and improved screen space reflections to enhancements to the ambient occlusion pipeline with GTAO and SSDO.”

That is not all however, as God of war will be supporting Nvidia’s DLSS, allowing you to run the game at a much higher perceived resolution without negatively impacting performance. Other Nvidia technologies added include the company’s Reflex Low Latency, making the game feel more responsive than ever.

Last but certainly not least, the game will offer 21:9 ultrawide support, allowing you to experience the story of Kratos and Atreus in its more pure and cinematic form. Being one of PlayStation’s most prestigious games, it is a welcome surprise to see the company bringing the title to Steam and the Epic Games Store. PC players will soon be able to understand exactly what makes God of War so great.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
