AMD’s latest RDNA 4-based RX 9070 series GPUs have officially hit retailers, and tech reviewers like Hardware Unboxed are calling it a “no-brainer” against Nvidia’s RTX 50 series alternatives. While both the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 offer solid raw performance, another major highlight of the RDNA 4 architecture is the overhaul of AMD’s upscaling technology, introduced as the all-new AMD FSR 4.

For those unaware, AMD’s upscaling technology, called FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), has historically lagged behind Nvidia’s DLSS, and comparing previous iterations like FSR 2, FSR 3, and even FSR 3.1 to DLSS often seemed pointless. However, with FSR 4, AMD ditched the old approach and launched its first-ever version using a neural network, bringing AI into the equation. The results speak for themselves, as FSR 4 easily surpasses the DLSS 3 CN model in most cases, narrowing the gap to DLSS 4.

List of FSR 4 supported games so far

However, to get the most out of FSR 4, you’ll need to play a supported title. Interestingly, you can upgrade supported games from AMD FSR 3.1's temporal upscaling to the ML-powered AMD FSR 4 with just a button in the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition. Another important fact is that FSR 4 is currently exclusive to the RX 9070 series graphics cards.

Since FSR 3.1 already includes the necessary FidelityFX API features, developers don't need to make extra changes. As of now, over 30 games have joined the FSR 4 support list, and AMD says that many more will be added later this year:

• Bellwright
• Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
• Civilization 7
• Creatures of Ava
• Dragonkin: The Banished
• Dynasty Warriors: Origins
• Enotria: The Last Song
• FragPunk
• Funko Fusion
• God of War: Ragnarok
• Horizon Forbidden West
• Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered
• Hunt: Showdown 1896
• Incursion Red River
• Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
• Kristala
• Marvel Rivals
• Marvel's Spider-Man 2
• Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
• Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered
• MechWarrior 5: Clans
• Nightingale
• No More Room in Hell 2
• PANICORE
• Predator: Hunting Grounds
• Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
• Remnant 2
• Smite 2
• The Alters
• The Axis Unseen
• The Last of Us: Part I
• Until Dawn
• Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines 2

Some of these titles will only run on Windows 11

A few of these titles, including Civilization 7, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, and Dynasty Warriors: Origins, will only support FSR 4 for users on Windows 11. We’re not sure why AMD has made this a requirement, but since Windows 10 support is ending soon, it might be time to finally make the switch.

That said, AMD has also confirmed that The Last of Us Part II Remastered will be added to the list of FSR 4-supported games when it launches in April. Beyond these titles, AMD has yet to announce what other games will support FSR 4, but when they do, we'll be here to update this list.

If you want to know more about RDNA 4 features, you might want to check out the recent ‘AMD Chat’ AI chatbot included in the latest AMD Software application. Again, this is exclusive to the RX 9070 series, so we decided to test it out.
