DLSS Launches In Dead As Disco Early Access, Plus New Looks At STAR WARS: Galactic Racer And 007 First Light

by Rainier on May 5, 2026 @ 6:00 a.m. PDT

This week, Dead As Disco enters Early Access, and there are new looks at two highly anticipated, upcoming games: Star Wars: Galactic Racer and 007 First Light.

Game developers can now begin integrating NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 with Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, Multi Frame Generation 6X, and the second-generation transformer model for NVIDIA Super Resolution.

Here’s a look out our other updates and resources - you can also read more here:

  • A new NVIDIA TensorRT for RTX plugin for Unreal Engine’s Neural Network Engine (NNE) is now available. The TensorRT for RTX plugin provides a runtime for Unreal Engine’s NNE, enabling efficient deployment of AI models directly within real-time applications. In practice, developers can see 1.5x performance improvements compared to DirectML-based approaches.

  • NVIDIA Kimodo, a research project, can now be used for easier motion generation. It can help reduce iteration time and expand the range of character movement in a project, while maintaining consistency with existing animation systems. Learn more about Kimodo

  • We’ve put together a guide to using ComfyUI to help produce pre-production assets. It walks creators through three production-ready workflows from the GenAI Creator Toolkit, adapted from the NVIDIA GTC 2026 Deep Learning Institute course “Create Generative AI Workflows for Design and Visualization in ComfyUI.” Each workflow is standalone, runs on any NVIDIA RTX GPU with 16 GB or more of VRAM, and works on both Windows and Linux.

  • Finally, you can check out more than a dozen new sessions from GDC and GTC. Some of the standouts sessions can be found here.

Here’s a closer look at new and upcoming games integrating RTX technologies: 

  • Star Wars: Galactic RacerThis high-stakes reinvention of racing born in the lawless Outer Rim of the Star Wars galaxy launches worldwide Oct. 6. Star Wars: Galactic Racer will feature day-one, native support for DLSS 4.5, including Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, and Super Resolution with the 2nd gen transformer model. Additionally, its high-fidelity visuals will be enhanced by hardware-accelerated, ray-traced Lumen lighting, which is further refined by DLSS Ray Reconstruction on GeForce RTX PCs and laptops. You can pre-order the PC version of Star Wars: Galactic Racer from the EA App, Epic Games Store, and Steam. If you pre-order any edition of the game, you’ll receive two exclusive pre-order bonuses: a bonus livery for your repulsorcraft and a bonus player banner for multiplayer modes.
  • 007 First LightIn 007 First Light, launching May 27, follow James Bond as a young, resourceful and sometimes reckless recruit in MI6's training program, and discover a reimagined origin story of the world’s most famous spy. GeForce RTX 50 Series players can experience 007 First Light with the highest levels of cinematic detail, and super fast frame rates thanks to PC-exclusive path-traced effects, the highest frame rates possible with DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, further enhanced fidelity with DLSS Ray Reconstruction. Check out a new gameplay clip from a recent media preview event featuring DLSS 4.5. 

  • Dead As Disco: Brain Jar Games' Dead As Disco puts you in the shoes of Charlie Disco, a fallen icon with one chance to reclaim the spotlight from the Idols – Charlie’s ex-bandmates and musical legends. When the game launches later today, GeForce RTX gamers can activate DLSS Super Resolution and DLSS Frame Generation to enhance and accelerate the game’s stylish, Lumen-illuminated visuals. And by activating NVIDIA Reflex, PC latency will be reduced, making it easier to nail the timing on Dead As Disco’s beat-based gameplay.
