Game news The PC port of God of War shines in a titanic fight at CES
While the next installment in the God of War series, called Ragnarök and offering us the sequel to the dangerous journey of Kratos and Atreus, is on everyone’s lips, we tend to obscure the imminent release of the 2018 reboot on PC, in eight days precisely. On the occasion of CES, porting was illustrated, briefly of course, through the company Nvidia.
The CES (Consumer Electronics Show) which is held annually in Las Vegas, United States, inaugurated the first day of its 2022 edition just yesterday, January 5, with a multitude of presentations, including that of Sony which revealed new information in terms of virtual reality by presenting us le PlayStation VR 2 as well as an exclusivity on this medium.
Speaking of exclusivity, PlayStation is set to offer gamers PC, in a few days, one of the most emblematic games of the PS4, to know God of War. Among the multitude of events organized during the great technological innovation fair, the portage of the game PC got a brief spotlight thanks to the firm Nvidia. The company notably used a capture from the game to extol the merits of its technologies.
A Kratos with sharp reflexes
Scheduled for January 14 on PC, God of War broke into Nvidia’s YouTube channel for a very succinct presentation, unfortunately, barely thirty seconds, leaving us just the time to remember, for some, or to discover the mythical clashes which punctuate the adventure of Kratos and Atreus.
This is how we discover a first rendering of porting thanks to Nvidia technologies. For the occasion, the clip focuses on the company’s low-latency Reflex technology and even offers a comparison to illustrate its effectiveness. : indeed, when this is activated, we can see that Kratos reacts more quickly to the commands which will be of great use to him not to succumb to the punches struck by the creatures of the game.
The company Nvidia specifies, moreover, that the capture was carried out using a GeForce RTX 30 series GPU and Nvidia G-Sync displays. In addition to the technology cited above, a report from the DSO Gaming website indicates that the port will also support DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) from Nvidia, a technology aimed at improving graphics rendering using artificial intelligence.
Another good news to finish, and still according to information from DSO Gaming, the version PC from God of War will indeed support the DualShock 4 wireless controllers of the PS4, but also the DualSense of the PS5 ! What to discover the first episode in optimal conditions before the release of God of War : Ragnarök in 2022, without further details even if the release date is debated !
