Summer Game Fest kicks off on June 7th

Summer Game Fest is just a couple of weeks away. With E3 now officially cancelled for good, Summer Game Fest has cemented its position as the new go-to summer event for game announcements. This year's show will see over 55 partners being involved, ranging from smaller indie companies and gaming-adjacent software makers, to the biggest publishers in the industry. 

As far as the big names go, Summer Game Fest will have involvement from many major publishers, including 2K Games, Amazon Games, Capcom, Bandai Namco, Epic Games, Devolver Digital, EA, Sega, Riot, Meta, WB, Ubisoft, PlayStation and Xbox.

On the gaming accessories and software side, we have companies like Discord, Samsung, Steam, Razer and more.

With such a big list of partners the possibilities for new game announcements are practically endless. Riot could potentially announce launch details for its new fighting game, Bandai Namco could return with a new trailer for Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree and Amazon could potentially reveal the next Tomb Raider game, as the tech giant has signed a deal to publish the next game from Crystal Dynamics.

Capcom has new Resident Evil and Monster Hunter games on the way too. No matter what, it seems that we can expect some exciting announcements for new games, alongside updates for on-going or previously announced titles. With 2K Games being present, I think BioShock fans in particular should keep an eye out, as recent rumours suggest that BioShock 4 may finally be heading for a reveal.

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.
