At GDC 2026, NVIDIA and CD Projekt RED showed a demo of the Polish studio's The Witcher 4 using NVIDIA's RTX Mega Geometry to path trace forests for the first time. Now, NVIDIA has released the full video replay of the GDC 2026 session 'The Future of Path Tracing | Best Practices, Optimizations & Future Standards', which includes lots of interesting details on that The Witcher 4/RTX Mega Geometry demo. Martin Stich, Senior Director of Engineering at NVIDIA, introduced the company's latest work based on Mega Geometry: a level-of-detail system for foliage. He notes that no new APIs or hardware […]

CD Projekt RED, as far as we officially know, is working on The Witcher 4, a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, an action RPG codenamed Project Hadar, and a Witcher multiplayer game codenamed Project Sirius. There have been a lot of rumors circulating recently that we're also getting a new DLC expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and while that remains unconfirmed, a lot of signs point to it getting revealed and released this year. What we won't be getting, however, according to CD Projekt RED, is a new expansion or new DLCs for Cyberpunk 2077. Through the official Cyberpunk […]

NVIDIA has announced that CDProjectRed's upcoming title, The Witcher 4, will leverage its updated RTX Mega Geometry technology, offering higher frame rates and lower VRAM usage. CDProjectRed & NVIDIA To Integrate Next-Gen RTX Mega Geometry Technology In The Witcher 4 With its RTX 50 GPUs powered by the Blackwell architecture, NVIDIA introduced a new technology called RTX Mega Geometry. This technology clusters millions of triangles that make up tens of thousands of objects you see in every scene. These clusters are compressed and cached over many frames, where they are intelligently reused as the player traverses the world. This makes […]

NVIDIA is expanding its DLSS 4.5 feature set this month, adding new frame‑generation options and wider game support as part of its next NVIDIA app beta arriving at the end of the month.

The new Nvidia App update introduces DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, a system that adjusts the number of generated frames on the fly to help players hit a target frame rate or match their display’s refresh rate. It will be available as an override option within the app but as has always been the case with Multi-Frame Generation, it is a feature exclusive to RTX 50 series GPUs. Upcoming games like 007 First Light and Control Resonant will launch with ray-traced graphics in the coming months and will support DLSS 4.5 from launch.

Another significant GeForce-related announcement at GDC this week came via RTX Mega Geometry. This technology initially debuted in Alan Wake 2, compressing geometry into clusters to accelerate scene updates and reduce VRAM usage. This means dense foliage and other complex environments can be rendered with full-fidelity Path Tracing. Control Resonant will be adopting this feature when it launches this year and further down the line, CD Projekt Red also plans to implement it in The Witcher 4.

Alongside the DLSS updates, NVIDIA has released a new GeForce Game Ready Driver optimised for Crimson Desert and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, both of which support DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation. The driver also adds support for more than 35 new G‑SYNC Compatible displays. The driver update is available now to download via the Nvidia App and directly through the Nvidia website.
