On March 18th, the highly acclaimed international gaming event, GDC 2024, will kick off. Seizing this opportunity, NVIDIA made a big splash on the evening of March 14th, unveiling some groundbreaking updates regarding the latest RTX technology integration.
The highly anticipated games "Black Myth: Wukong" and "Eternal Damnation" will soon support ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 technology in upcoming updates and releases. They have also unveiled brand new gameplay trailers. Shortly after the trailer release, "Black Myth: Wukong" has surged to the top of online buzz, securing the top spot on Bilibili's reservation chart with a stellar 9.9 rating.
"Black Myth: Wukong" drops an epic new gameplay trailer!
Developed by Game Science using the Unreal Engine 5, "Black Myth: Wukong" is an action role-playing game set against the backdrop of Chinese mythology. Players will step into the shoes of a "chosen one," embarking on a perilous and wondrous journey in the footsteps of the ancient legends. This highly anticipated game is set to launch on August 20, complete with support for full ray tracing and DLSS 3.5 right out of the gate, ensuring an unparalleled gaming experience.
Based on the latest teaser released by NVIDIA, it's evident that when games are equipped with full-scene ray tracing, the water surfaces can reflect every detail of the surrounding environment, enhancing the realism with improved caustic effects. Additionally, full-scene ray tracing ensures a natural transition between indoor and outdoor lighting, illuminating even the darkest corners with indirect light. The precise casting of hardened and softened shadows brings to life every detail, from tiny leaves and pebbles to complex architecture and massive creatures. Compared to previous teasers, there's a noticeable improvement in the game's graphics quality. I'm confident that when the game officially launches, it's going to be a mind-blowing experience for all players!
Certainly, such high-quality graphics wouldn't be possible without a good graphics card. For gamers at 1080p resolution, I recommend the Genshin GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Snowfall Edition. This card offers excellent performance at a great value, with its sleek white design complementing its impressive gaming capabilities for an outstanding gaming experience.
Moving up to 2K resolution, you can't go wrong with the Genshin GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Windchaser OC. With its exceptional performance and value, powered by the AD103 core and 16GB of VRAM, users can effortlessly game and create without compromise.
And for those diving into 4K gaming, the Genshin GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER Radiance OC is the ultimate choice. With its AD-103 core and accelerated frequency up to 2610MHz, it strikes the perfect balance between performance and power consumption, making it a must-have for high-end gamers.
Optimization for "Eternal Abyss" receives another upgrade.
"Naraka: Bladepoint" is an online multiplayer battle game that's all about innovation and creativity. This time around, it's stepping up its game by integrating full-scene ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 technology, offering players a major boost in both graphics and performance. With the latest update, players can now enjoy the exquisite visual effects brought by full-scene ray tracing across three maps in both PVP and PVE modes. And as future updates roll in, even more areas of the game will be getting this advanced tech treatment.
In the trailer, it's clear that turning on full-scene ray tracing, thanks to the high-fidelity ambient occlusion technology, allows for the game's water surfaces to perfectly reflect the surrounding environment unlike before. The lighting is natural and accurate, the shadows are lifelike and gradually soften, and the realism of every element is significantly enhanced.
Conclusion
Even though GDC 2024 hasn't kicked off yet, the technical upgrades and the latest gameplay trailers of "Black Myth: Wukong" and "Naraka: Bladepoint" are sure to blow gamers away! It's expected that once the conference gets going, NVIDIA and other manufacturers will bring more cutting-edge technology and game collaborations to the table. Colorful will also bring the latest news to gamers after GDC 2024 officially starts, so stay tuned!
Gamers seeking the ultimate gaming experience can opt for the powerful GeForce RTX 40 series graphics cards. This lineup features the all-new NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, supporting various RTX technologies including NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 and ray tracing, for more lifelike and detailed game visuals. Recently, NVIDIA released a beta version of its app, integrating it with GeForce Experience to create a more convenient and hassle-free GPU control center for users. However, since the app is still in beta testing, GeForce Experience will continue to provide services. Users interested in trying out the NVIDIA app beta version can download it from the official website.
In addition, the newly released GeForce RTX series graphics cards also support the latest Chat with RTX technology, allowing users to engage with customized chatbots to quickly receive tailored answers based on their inquiries.
Currently, Chat with RTX supports local deployment, which not only enhances search efficiency but also improves user security when using it. Users can easily and quickly use data from their desktop as datasets, connecting to various open-source large language models for swift queries related to context. Moreover, Chat with RTX supports multiple file formats; users simply need to specify the folder containing the target files within the application for loading. In addition to local files, Chat with RTX enables users to input URLs of YouTube playlists, automatically transcribing the video content for querying purposes.
