A new surprising, but exciting, development, has come up when it comes to Starfield, at least for people who don’t have PC builds based around AMD.
This all started when Bethesda revealed that they had made AMD an official partner for Starfield. Bethesda is not commenting on whether this arrangement means that other companies are not allowed to work on compatibility with Starfield. In particular, everyone’s concern are upscalers, such as Nvidia’s DLSS, or Intel’s XESS. It certainly sounds like only AMD’s FSR will get official support for Starfield. This

However, given that Intel is a newcomer to the market, and most gamers do have either an older Nvidia or AMD GPU, Puredark will help cover more or less half of those PC gamers, on Nvidia GPUs.
So, the news is that PureDark was himself given a review copy of Starfield. Our source may be
