AMD just released its first graphics driver of May, bringing support for three upcoming titles, AI acceleration and development support, alongside bug fixes.
Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut from PlayStation is launching on May 16, Xbox's Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is coming out on May 21, while F1 24 is out May 31. All three games are gaining official support for Radeon graphics users with this driver update. While AMD doesn’t say what kind of improvements can gamers expect with it, the driver is a recommended install for anyone jumping in.
