NVIDIA DLSS 3 Comes to DUCKSIDE, Empire of the Ants, and Planet Coaster 2
More than 600 games and applications feature RTX technologies, and each week new games integrating NVIDIA DLSS, NVIDIA Reflex, and advanced ray-traced effects are released or announced, delivering the definitive PC experience for GeForce RTX players. This week, there's a ton of new releases and announcements, so let's dive on in.
Following the launch of even more amazing blockbuster DLSS games last week, this week Empire of the Ants and Planet Coaster 2 launch with DLSS 3 with Frame Generation and Super Resolution, and we're highlighting the recently released indie game DUCKSIDE, which also boasts support for DLSS 3. Additionally, SILENT HILL 2 and Kristala now feature support for DLSS 3 with Frame Generation. And you can win a GeForce RTX 40 Series PC by speedrunning a new Fortnite Lofi Girl challenge map.
Planet Coaster 2 Available Now With DLSS 3, DLAA & Reflex
Create a splash with Frontier Developments' Planet Coaster 2! Reach new heights of creativity, management, and sharing as you construct the theme park of your dreams. With incredible attractions, including towering rollercoasters and twisting waterslides, stunning scenery, and authentic management, players must provide their guests with an unforgettable day out as they put their creativity and business acumen to the test.
Planet Coaster 2 is available now with day-one support for DLSS 3 with Frame Generation and Super Resolution, giving GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers the fastest possible frame rates the second they start playing.
Alternatively, max out image quality with DLAA, which can be used in concert with Frame Generation, for fast frame rates and incredible image quality. NVIDIA DLAA is an AI-based anti-aliasing mode that utilizes the same technology developed for DLSS. When enabling DLAA, it uses a native resolution image to maximize image quality, rather than boosting performance, for an even richer experience.
Additionally, GeForce gamers can activate NVIDIA Reflex in Planet Coaster 2. This game changing technology reduces system latency on GeForce graphics cards and laptops, so your actions occur quicker, giving you a competitive edge in multiplayer matches and making single-player titles more responsive and enjoyable.
In Planet Coaster 2, enabling Reflex with a few clicks sees system latency reduced, further improving the PC experience for GeForce gamers.
Since its debut in September 2020, NVIDIA Reflex has reduced system latency in over 120 games, and over 90% of GeForce gamers have enabled Reflex. 9 of the top 10 competitive shooters feature Reflex support, along with critically acclaimed co-op and single-player games. In 2023 alone, GeForce gamers played over 10 billion hours of their favorite titles with increased responsiveness thanks to Reflex's innovative system latency reducing technology.
Empire of the Ants Available Now With DLSS 3 & Reflex
Edited by Microids, and developed by Tower Five with industry veterans using Unreal Engine 5, Empire of the Ants offers players a real-time solo and multiplayer strategic experience inspired by Bernard Werber's iconic saga. Prepare to embark on a thrilling journey, where you must lead a colony of ants to prosperity through tactical and strategic battles in a world of epic proportions.
With Empire of the Ants, every decision is critical, every move is strategic, and every conquest reflects your skill in exploring a world where the smallest beings wield immense power! Strategy, exploration, battles, and even alliances with the local wildlife will be necessary to emerge victorious from the myriad challenges that await players.
Empire of the Ants launches today, and the PC edition, available from the Epic Games Store, GOG, and Steam, will boast support for DLSS 3 with Frame Generation and Super Resolution, giving you the performance headroom to crank up the game's incredible graphics. And with Reflex, the ant-based action will be even more responsive thanks to reduced system latency.
DUCKSIDE Available Now With DLSS 3, DLAA & Reflex

DUCKSIDE isn't just about surviving; it's about getting into the mind of a duck. Being a duck. Feeling the cold steel of a machine gun on your feathers. The heat of a grenade exploding next to you. And the peace of mind that comes with settling down after a long day, in a house you built out of trash that you'd looted off some guy's corpse. Don't be a chicken, be a firequacker.
DUCKSIDE is available now in Early Access, and from day one has featured support for NVIDIA DLSS 3 with Frame Generation and Super Resolution, DLAA, and NVIDIA Reflex, ensuring GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers receive the definitive PC experience the second they start playing, with accelerated frame rates and even more responsive gameplay.
