It Just Works! NVIDIA RTX Technology Close To Hit Adoption By 400 Games & Software’s

In a recent update to an NVIDIA post on the company's official website, the feature story "NVIDIA DLSS & GeForce RTX: List Of All Games, Engines, And Applications Featuring GeForce RTX-POowered Technology And Features," the company lists all the current applications and games that support the RTX technology. Now sitting at 398 titles, the list is reaching close to 400 titles — a true milestone for the company, especially with a technology that debuted less than five years ago in September 2018.

The first inclusion of the technology was seen in NVIDIA's Turing architecture. Now, with the company in its Ada Lovelace architecture period, it has shown the benefits of RTX for software engines, games, and applications that have evolved immensely over time. However, the company had a rocky start with the debut of the RTX technology. When NVIDIA RTX first debuted, not much was compatible with entirely taking advantage of the technology. The media and gamers found witnessing actual differences in RTX tech challenging.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20 series of graphics cards saw adoption outside of the gaming and application fields and into crypto mining, especially during the height of COVID-19. Users wanting to score big financially or interested in developing digital monetary assets to create a future nest egg for themselves bought several NVIDIA graphics cards off the shelves, making it difficult for the typical consumer to update their gaming or work PC, especially when most of society was forced to work from home.

With the introduction of the RTX 30 series, NVIDIA introduced DLSS 2+, assisted with the increase in the study of artificial intelligence and machine learning, and offered gamers immediate raytracing while playing their favorite PC games from the first day of release.

With NVIDIA in the new RTX 40 series GPUs, the company has introduced DLSS 3 and, within the last week, introduced NVIDIA Video Super Resolution (VSR). However, the company only offers DLSS 3 support for the latest generation of graphics cards. In contrast, their new video upscaler supports the current and previous generation GPUs, meaning that RTX 20 series and below will not see adoption soon, if at all.

Currently, the RTX technology list offers 254 game titles and 114 applications. With games and other software continuing to come out or be updated for the newest generational technology, reaching 400+ titles will not be too far into the future. More and more add support each and every month. Check out the full list below, last updated on February 23rd, 2023.
