New DLSS 3 mods have been released for Assassin's Creed Mirage and Lies of P. The DLSS 3 mod for the latest chapter in the Ubisoft franchise was crafted by PureDark, who released it a few hours ago alongside a demonstration video.
The footage shows that PureDark's GeForce RTX 4070Ti graphics card gains around 50% more frames when DLSS Frame Generation is enabled. The DLSS 3 mod also includes a Chromatic Aberration toggle to disable the annoying effect. However, if you don't want to subscribe to PureDark's Patreon to get his mod, a free mod that achieves the same result is available for download on Nexus Mods.
Assassin's Creed Mirage earned an 8 out of 10 score in Wccftech's review written by Nathan Birch. Here's what he had to say about it in the summary:
Assassin’s Creed Mirage doesn’t make the sharpest first impression with its dated visuals and by-the-book mechanics, but like its hooded protagonist, the game sneaks up on you with its manageably-sized yet vibrant map, intricately-woven campaign, and varied missions. Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s blade may be slightly tarnished, but it still leaves a mark.
The other DLSS 3 mod was released earlier this week by LukeFZ, the same modder behind the free Starfield DLSS 3 mod, for NEOWIZ's Soulslike game Lies of P. Just like that mod and unlike PureDark's, this is freely available on Nexus Mods.
Unfortunately, several users have reported a Fatal Error that prevents them from playing the game when the current mod version is installed. If you still wish to try, here's how the installation process works:
Keep in mind that this DLSS 3 mod swaps the game's AMD FSR 2 with NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and then hooks Frame Generation on top of that, so don't use the native DLSS SR available in Lies of P.
The game also got an 8 out of 10 score in Wccftech's review by Francesco De Meo:
Wearing its influences on its sleeves, Lies of P is a solid imitation of FromSoftware's Bloodborne that manages to stay fun for the entire duration of a single playthrough of around 20 hours despite a marked lack of innovation. While the callbacks and nods to the game that inspired it may be a little too blatant, NEOWIZ has developed a solid game that all soulslike fans can enjoy if they can keep their expectations in check.
BlizzCon is just a week away, and Blizzard has confirmed the schedule for the two-day event and live stream for those who aren’t making it out to California.
NVIDIA has just released a new Game Ready driver (version 545.92) for its GeForce graphics cards, optimized for Alan Wake 2 and Ghostrunner 2.
Like clockwork, HEXWORKS released the promised Lords of the Fallen Thursday patch, which weighs slightly less than 1GB on Steam. Version 1.1.243 brings some performance improvements thanks to the developer's collaboration with Epic Games:
Mortal Online 2 is fast approaching the release of its Unreal Engine 5 upgrade. The PTR for the overhaul closed today, and Star Vault is enlisting the community to help make a trailer for the final release.
Publisher Bandai Namco has released the casual RPG Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. Engage for iOS and Android and iOS.
After a three-year hiatus, Assassin’s Creed returns with Mirage. From a visuals and technical perspective, the team at Ubisoft has gone for a “less is more” approach. Powered by the latest iteration of the Anvil engine, Mirage looks stunning, often due to the myriad features it sports that are still not commonplace in all games or engines, such as real-time lighting systems that incorporate time of day, global illumination bounce of light, dense cities, vast landscapes, and huge vistas with rich and colourful flora and fauna.
South Korean developer NEOWIZ announced that its Soulslike game Lies of P has managed to sell more than one million units in less than a month from its release. It is undoubtedly an impressive figure for a new IP, and doubly so since the game is available on Game Pass.
With a new day comes yet another Lords of the Fallen patch. The folks at Hexworks certainly aren't resting on their laurels despite the game's positive commercial debut hinted by CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski on Twitter.
Modder LukeFZ has released a free DLSS 3 mod for Assassin's Creed Mirage. Once again, just like with Starfield, GeForce RTX 40 users who don't feel like spending for PureDark's DLSS 3 mod can rely on LukeFZ's work to get a performance boost.
This morning, developer Hexworks released a new Lords of the Fallen patch (version 1.1.191) on PC. This new update attempts to fix several crash issues. To do so, it temporarily disables NVIDIA DLSS 3 (Frame Generation) until the developers, with the help of NVIDIA, can improve its stability. This should alleviate some crash issues reported by owners of GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs.

Dotemu has announced the arrival of a new content update for 2022’s Windjammers 2. While two new characters may seem like the most substantial addition, the fact that it’s getting a long-overdue tutorial mode is probably the most important.
