Starfield's latest patch adds options for FSR 3 and XeSS support
Bethesda has released a new patch for Starfield, improving game stability while adding two more upscaling technologies.
The patch notes were published on February 20 and confirm that the open-world sci-fi role-playing game has officially added both the AMD FidelityFXTM Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3) and Intel Xe Super Sampling (XeSS) for PC.
FSR 3 was available to try out in Starfield's Steam Beta version earlier this month and allows for a combination of upscaling and advanced frame generation, which boosts framerate and improves overall performance.
Intel's XeSS works similarly and uses AI-enhanced upscaling to enable better performance with high image fidelity. With the patch installed, players should now be able to head to their display settings in Starfield and select both FSR 3 and XeSS as their preferred upscaling technology, as long as they have the correct respective GPU, of course.
The RPG launched with only Radeon's FSR2 upscaling technology back in September 2023, and it wasn't until late November that Bethesda finally added Nvidia Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) support after being tested in beta for multiple weeks.
Alongside the two super sampling options, the game has also received a series of stability fixes, including an issue that would make clouds vibrate when using DLSS performance mode. You can read the full patch notes below.
