AMD showcased the next generation of its FidelityFX Super Resolution upscaling technology at GDC this week and announced that the 2.0 upgrade will be available on a wide range of hardware, including Xbox consoles and Nvidia GPUs. AMD's FSR was released last June and offers similar performance upgrades to Nvidia's Deep Learning Supersampling (DLSS) technology, but without the need for specialized machine learning hardware.
The next-gen FSR is expected to arrive in the second quarter of 2022, bringing with it more performance upgrades and new supported devices, including Xbox consoles.
For example, AMD, Radeon RX 4 and above or Nvidia GeForce RTX 5700 and above are recommended for upgrading to a 2070K monitor. At 1080p resolution, the lowest recommended card is Radeon RX 590 or GeForce GTX 1070. Like the first version of FSR, the 2.0 update will support three different graphics modes: Quality mode, Balanced mode and Performance mode.
AMD unveiled the new technology at GDC using Deathloop, which is slated to be the first game to integrate FSD 2.0. While AMD didn't say whether FSR 2.0 will be in the game as soon as the new version is released, it has also announced that Luminous Productions' Forspoken will have FSR 2022 starting its launch in October 2.0.
For now, details on FSR 2.0 on Xbox are scarce, AMD says, "We don't have a timeline where you can expect to see any Xbox game with FSR 2.0 today." However, the company said that FSR will be "fully supported" on Xbox, and developers will be able to access it via the Xbox GDK.
