NVIDIA Rolls Out New GeForce Game Ready Driver For Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut To Support DLSS 3, DLAA, and Reflex

by Rainier on May 9, 2024 @ 6:00 a.m. PDT

Ghost Of Tsushima is a sprawling, open-world samurai game set in feudal Japan where you play as a battered samurai, fighting back against overwhelming odds.

In the late 13th century, the Mongol empire has laid waste to entire nations along their campaign to conquer the East.

Tsushima Island is all that stands between mainland Japan and a massive Mongol invasion fleet led by the ruthless and cunning general, Khotun Khan. As the island burns in the wake of the first wave of the Mongol assault, samurai warrior Jin Sakai stands as one of the last surviving members of his clan.

He is resolved do whatever it takes, at any cost, to protect his people and reclaim his home. He must set aside the traditions that have shaped him as a warrior to forge a new path, the path of the Ghost, and wage an unconventional war for the freedom of Tsushima.

The power and confidence of the Mongol Empire coming face to face with pure, lethal, samurai determination.

Every week, NVIDIA brings you the latest updates in gaming tech. This week it’s all about our GeForce Game Ready Driver for Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut, enhanced with DLSS 3, DLAA, and Reflex. 

This launch will include out-of-the-box support for our unparalleled game-enhancing tech. DLSS 2 and DLSS 3 will allow players to accelerate frame rates, allowing for the fastest performance yet! Gamers also can utilize DLAA which uses a native resolution image to maximize image quality, rather than boost performance. This release will allow players to combine DLAA and DLSS 3 for excellent image quality and performance. 

It only gets more exciting from here, because gamers can also use NVIDIA Reflex, which can be implemented with any of the settings on GeForce RTX and GeForce GTX GPUs. This will reduce system latency making actions quicker while giving a competitive edge in multiplayer matches,  all while making single-player games more responsive and fun to play. 

Ghost on Tsushima Director’s Cut on PC contains the full game, the Iki Island expansion, and the cooperative online multiplayer Legends mode. Thanks to cross-play support, Legends players on Windows PCs can team up with players on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles and use in-game voice chat to communicate. You will be required to sign into your PlayStation Network account to access Legends mode.

Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is the first PlayStation title on PC that uses a new PlayStation overlay, which includes your Friends list, Trophies, Settings, and your Profile. This feature is available on Windows PCs and will be accessible from the in-game menu or, for keyboard players, by pressing the “SHIFT +F1” shortcut on your keyboard.

While playing the game, you can earn PlayStation Trophies just like on PlayStation consoles. Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on PC shares the same Trophy set as the game on PlayStation 5 consoles*. In addition, the PC version also has full support for Achievements on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

To make use of features like Trophies, Friends list, and cross-play, you can sign in with your existing account for PlayStation Network or create a new account. The use of PlayStation overlay is optional for both the single player experience and Legends mode. 

When bringing a game over from PlayStation consoles to PC, the team at Nixxes always strives to give a great experience to as many players as possible. In Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on PC, you’ll find a range of graphics presets aimed at making the game run well on older hardware, as well as making it shine on high-end PCs.** Below you’ll find the details on recommended hardware for various presets that are available in the game.
