Battlestate Games has confirmed that DLSS 4 is going to Escape From Tarkov. The next evolution of NVIDIA’s AI-powered upscaling technology is undergoing internal testing and should be landing in the game soon (trademarked Tarkov development time, of course).
Now, for those of you who aren’t knee-deep in GPU specs and AI-driven wizardry, DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is a technology designed to do three things:
🔹 Boost FPS – Because let’s be honest, every Tarkov player could use a few extra frames in a heated firefight.
🔹 Reduce latency – Less input lag means quicker reactions, which means fewer rage-inducing deaths.
🔹 Improve image quality – Because a post-apocalyptic war zone deserves to look crispy.
DLSS 4 takes this even further, thanks to NVIDIA’s latest advancements in neural rendering. If implemented correctly, this could mean higher performance without the usual graphical trade-offs, making the game run smoother across a wider range of hardware.
If you’ve ever played Escape from Tarkov, you know that optimization is… let’s call it an ongoing battle. Even on powerful rigs, the game can chug like an exhausted PMC after too much looting. DLSS 4, assuming it delivers, could be a game-changer for mid-tier and high-end GPUs alike.
However, as always with Tarkov updates, there are a few things to keep in mind:
✅ Performance Gains – If done right, expect a noticeable boost in FPS, especially in larger, more demanding maps.
❌ Possible Bugs – This is Tarkov, after all. Expect some weird visual glitches, potential ghosting, or other AI-powered oddities at launch.
🔄 Tuning & Fixes – The first implementation might not be perfect, but if Battlestate follows through with proper updates, this could be a huge win for players.
