Nvidia has a new graphics driver for download, and it"s packed full of support for upcoming games, DLSS 4 in more games, ongoing bug fixes for the RTX 50 series graphics cards, and more.
The upcoming The Sims rival inZOI is receiving day-one support with the driver. Interestingly, players will find an experimental "Nvidia ACE autonomous game characters" setting in-game, letting its NPCs turn "smart" using "higher levels of artificial intelligence."
Meanwhile, Nvidia DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation support has been added to Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Half-Life 2 RTX Demo, The Last of Us Part II Remastered, and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. Moreover, GeForce RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti notebooks also have official driver support in this version.
