War Thunder adds NVIDIA DLSS 5 with 3D-Guided Neural Rendering

War Thunder will receive DLSS 5 support through the Eagle's Shadow update in mid-November, reports say. Gaijin Entertainment says the update adds 3D-Guided Neural Rendering, which uses a specialized AI model to analyze rendered frames alongside color, motion vectors, and depth information. This technology is intended to enhance lighting, shading, and material properties in real time.

The update requires GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards or RTX Spark devices to function. On this hardware, the developer states that DLSS 5 enables advanced ray-traced visuals and path tracing. The Eagle's Shadow update also reportedly introduces new tanks, ships, planes, and cluster bombs.
