Dota 2 gets AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution, new event and Battle Pass
24 Jun 2021 at 9:10 am UTC

The AMD Windows driver 21.6.1 says it has "AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) support for select titles" but this is just marketing.
FSR has nothing to do with the driver, AMD confirmed this. So yeah it's just a pixel compute step the game does, and should work everywhere...

Looks like it's all over for the once promising Smach Z handheld

I backed this, would have been fun... At a low tier, I forgot about that money a few years ago... But it still sucks.

I have a ppa that tracks release candidates if someone's interested: https://launchpad.net/~ernstp/+archive/ubuntu/mesarc [External Link]
(it's on the commit right before they tagged 21.1, should be updated in a bit...)

Total War: WARHAMMER III announced and confirmed for Linux by Feral Interactive

Quoting: TheSHEEEP
Quoting: RedBatmanI'm glad about this. My only worry is that Warhammer 2 had bugs that were bad and Linux was getting some bugs that affected performance. Hopefully they will be fixed by this new release.
The entire engine will be much closer to what you can see in Three Kingdoms or Troy - both totally outperform the WH 2 engine.

No doubt it will be the same with WH3.

Of course you can still expect bugs, though ;)
Was also thinking about that. Sounds good!

Quoting: CatKillerPeople have already posted videos of themselves playing the game on AMD cards with drivers that expose the extension.
Thanks for the proper check!

Anyway, waiting for AMDVLK or RADV with raytracing support...
