AMD announces FSR 2.0 coming in Q2

Over the last week, rumours have been circulating around AMD’s next-gen upscaling technology. Now today, AMD has officially announced RSR, its new driver-level upscaling feature, and FSR 2.0, which is coming in Q2 2022. 

Previous leaks claimed that FSR 2.0 would arrive in Q2 and today, AMD has confirmed exactly that. We’ll get some more details during GDC next week, but for now, we have a few details about the upgrades FSR 2.0 will bring.

FSR 2.0 aims to offer better than native image quality, with visual improvements to every preset that FSR offers. As previously expected, FSR 2.0 does not use any machine learning hardware, so the feature will be widely supported across GPUs.

While we’ll have to wait a little longer for full details on FSR 2.0, AMD has released RSR, another upscaling solution originally announced back at CES. Now that this feature is available publicly, we’ve put it to the test, so check out our RSR analysis, including comparisons to FSR 1.0, NIS and DLSS, HERE.

KitGuru Says: FSR 2.0 is on the way and it sounds like it will be a very good upgrade. We’ll be back with more next week following AMD’s GDC panel.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
