Nvidia announces DLSS 4 games including Borderlands 4, with Resident Evil Requiem boasting path tracing
Gamescom 2025The Nvidia Gamescom 2025 announcements shared which new titles will benefit from DLSS 4 enhancements. RTX 50 series owners can soon activate multi frame generation to boost performance in Borderlands 4. Meanwhile, even though Resident Evil Requiem isn’t due out until February 2026, gamers now know it will offer path tracing.
As one of the more anticipated DLSS 4 games, Borderlands 4 promises multi frame generation support. On its September 12th release date, the exclusive Blackwell GPU feature could significantly boost frame rates. Nvidia Reflex aims to counter the input delays introduced by the AI-powered technology. In related news, the manufacturer will also sell a Borderlands 4 bundle with RTX 50 series graphics cards.
Ray tracing has added to the eerie atmosphere in multiple Resident Evil games. Without mods of patches, the lighting in Resident Evil Requiem may look even more realistic with path tracing. As players fumble around in the dark, multiple light rays could guide the way to safety. Joining Capcom’s project, Directive 8020, is another 2026 survival horror game that will employ path tracing.
More new DLSS 4 games and Nvidia app features
Other notable DLSS 4 games include Fate Trigger, which has already undergone a closed beta. The anime-themed tactical shooter will embrace features like multi frame generation. The Outer Worlds 2, Phantom Blade Zero, Pragamata, and Cronos: The New Dawn will utilize more efficient ray tracing. Finally, in September, Nvidia plans to implement RTX Hair effects in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
At Gamescom 2025, Nvidia also detailed improvements to its app, available in beta versions on August 19th. To quickly switch on multi frame generation or super resolution, the software will showcase revamped global DLSS overrides. For older games, players will also be able to enable anti-aliasing or ambient occlusion in the software.
