Starfield DLSS 3 Beta Update Introduces Significant Performance Improvements Even Without Upscaling
The new Starfield beta update, which introduces NVIDIA DLSS 3 support to the game, brings performance improvements even without using NVIDIA's upscaling tech, judging from a new video shared online.
The video, which was put together by Compusemble, puts the latest stable version of the game side by side with the new version running at 4K resolution, max settings without DLSS, with just Super Resolution and with both Super Resolution and Frame Generation. While Super Resolution and Frame Generation bring considerable performance improvements, the game runs much better in the new beta version even without them, with considerably lower frametimes and slightly higher averages.
Since launch, Bethesda hasn't addressed the performance improvements that many are having with Starfield, so it is good to know that things are about to get better, as the game definitely deserves to be played by fans of the studio without any technical issues, as I highlighted in my review.
With an engaging story, well-developed characters and lore, and a huge amount of meaningful content, Starfield is one of Bethesda's finest games and one of the best role-playing games released in the past few years. The lack of seamless exploration and real innovation of the typical gameplay formula from the studio are noteworthy, but those willing to forego these issues will find a reactive and sprawling sci-fi universe to lose themselves in for hundreds, if not thousands, of hours.
Starfield is now available for PC, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S worldwide. A launch date for the new update has yet to be announced.
