June’s Humble Choice games have arrived from places beyond, and this month’s mix will take you on an otherworldly journey through a haunted metropolis, alternate dimensions, cursed temples, across time—and to a crazy golf/race course too for good measure. Eight supernaturally great games are waiting, all yours to own and add to your PC gaming library forever when you’re a Humble Choice member this month!
Intel Arc graphics have dedicated AI hardware built-in. Leveraging those capabilities for gaming gets the most performance possible out of Arc GPUs, and that’s exactly what Xe Super Sampling does. Let’s look closer: when you turn on XeSS, every frame the GPU renders starts at a lower size than your target resolution. That smaller image renders quickly, then XeSS steps in. XeSS uses a trained AI model combined with motion vectors and frame history to intelligently upscale frames to full HD, 1440p, or 4K. Got all that? The sausage-making can get pretty technical, but the important thing is turning XeSS on scales games to high resolutions faster than traditional rendering could.
FPS numbers aren’t the only thing we’re increasing: over fifty games now include XeSS, from the biggest franchises to your niche favorites. When we launched the Intel Arc A750 and A770, we showed how XeSS works to boost FPS in nine popular games with over a dozen more on the way. Now with our high-performance desktop GPUs out for half a year, our game developer friends have helped deliver even more AI-fueled upscaling to over fifty new and existing games. A full list of every game and demo with XeSS included is at the bottom of this article.
