New Game Ready Driver 471.11 Adds Support For DLSS In ‘DOOM Eternal’, ‘LEGO Builder’s Journey’, And ‘Rust’

While AMD is just now launching their DLSS competitor, NVIDIA’s latest GeForce Game Ready 471.11 driver already delivers support for RTX technologies in over 130 games, giving gamers high-quality graphics, improved performance, and lower system latency.

LEGO Builder’s Journey launches today with DLSS and ray tracing. Next week, June 29, DOOM Eternal gets an patch that enables DLSS and ray tracing. And Rust is the latest game to add DLSS on July 1st. All of these games are supported by GeForce 471.11 driver and Rodrigo will analyze its performance next week.

LEGO Builder’s Journey is enhanced by ray-traced ambient occlusion, global illumination, reflections, and shadows and accelerated with NVIDIA DLSS. It is the world’s first Unity game with ray tracing. LEGO Builder’s Journey is a geometric puzzle game set in a LEGO brick-based environment and DLSS improves performance by up to 92% in the game according to Nvidia.

DOOM Eternal adds ray-traced reflections and performance enhancing DLSS next week, July 29, in an major update and Rust gets DLSS two days later. This follows the addition of NVIDIA Reflex in May to Rust which reduced system latency by up to 38% according to NVIDIA. Check back here on July 1st for further details.

Game Ready Driver for DOOM Eternal and LEGO Builder’s Journey, launching June 22nd, also adds other features, including GeForce Experience Enhancements from NVIDIA’s press release:
