Update 4 has finally arrived on the game Baldur’s Gate 3 bringing with it more 1 000 corrections for this RPG very popular with players. But in addition to these corrections, we also have the contribution of technology AMD FSR 2.2 (FidelityFX Super Resolution) for improved performance.
FSR 2 for Baldur’s Gate 3, but still no FSR 3 or DLSS 3 for that matter
At launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 took charge of the version 1.0 de FidelityFX Super Resolution. This is an upsampling solution that offers huge performance benefits, but without the same levels of image quality as other upsampling solutions. With FSR 2, PC gamers can experience similar performance benefits to FSR 1.0, but this time with significantly higher image quality. This is great news for gamers, especially those playing on portable devices such as Valve’s Steam Deck or ASUS ROG Ally.
FSR 2 support was promised for Baldur’s Gate 3 before market launch. It’s finally good to see this option on PC, although we would have liked to see FSR 2 arrive sooner.
On the other hand, how come Baldur’s Gate 3 doesn’t support FSR 3? AMD unveiled FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3) technology at Gamescom 2023. AMD’s FSR 3 technology adds frame generation support to the Reds technology feature set. FSR 3 allows players to increase the fluidity of their games with generated frames. But while FSR 3 is already available in some games, AMD has yet to make FSR 3 available as a free, open-source technology on GPUopen. This means that game developers cannot freely add FSR 3 support to their games. Only AMD developer partners have early access to the company’s FSR 3 technology and for now, Larainethe studio behind our game does not appear to be one of these partner developers.
Unfortunately, we should therefore not expect to see the FSR 3 arrive in Baldur’s Gate 3 until AMD makes its technology open source. That said, Laraine doesn’t seem particularly interested in frame generation, as the company hasn’t implemented frame generation from NVIDIA’s DLSS 3 into its RPG either. It remains to be seen whether these technologies will arrive in the future with further updates.
