In a two minute youtube video posted on Nvidia’s official account page, the upcoming PC title ‘Lords of the Fallen’ shows off GameWorks, the proprietary visual effects suite provided to the developer by Nvidia.
Heralded as ‘Dark Souls taken to the next level’ by game-debate.com, Lords of the Fallen is a action RPG coming to PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Volumetric lighting, turbulence, particle and cloth effects have all been built upon the GameWorks infrastructure and look impressive even in this compressed youtube video.
AMD in the past has claimed the GameWorks (an Nvidia product) intentionally crippled the performance of their R9 and HD 7000 series GPUs in titles such as Assassins Creed IV Black Flag and Batman Arkham Origins. This of course is a claim Nvidia denies and we home we don’t see any issues with the release of Lords of the Fallen or any other GameWorks enabled games in the future.
