How To Update the DLSS Version of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

by

“Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is one of the top PC games released this year and another impressive demonstration of CryEngine’s capabilities. It runs smoothly on various hardware, without any lag during gameplay, and boasts an attractive visual design. It’s a pleasure to play an open-world game that doesn’t experience frequent stutters, and Warhorse Studios should be commended for their excellent work.

When you buy Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, it comes with both DLSS and FSR technologies to boost performance. However, the current DLSS version in the game is not as advanced. But, there’s a new version of DLSS called DLSS 4, which is a real game-changer for visual quality. It would be beneficial for you to upgrade the DLSS version of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 to this latest model.

Update Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 to DLSS 4

At the moment, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 includes DLSS version 3.7, which is serviceable but not as impressive as DLSS 4. With the introduction of DLSS 4, users can decrease the DLSS quality setting and still obtain a sharper image compared to DLSS 3. This means improved performance and even less noticeable quality reduction with DLSS 4.

Users have several methods to individually update their DLSS versions. However, for a smoother and more versatile experience across multiple games, consider utilizing the following tools:

1. NVIDIA Control Panel
2. GeForce Experience
3. OptimalPlayground’s ReShade Preset Manager (for those who use ReShade)

Use NVIDIA App

NVIDIA recently made it possible for users to upgrade their DLSS version within the NVIDIA Application itself. Don’t forget to check if your NVIDIA Application is up-to-date; you can grab the latest version directly from the official NVIDIA website.

  • Once logged in, head over to the “Graphics” tab.
  • Here, your game library should show up automatically. If it doesn’t, you can add more folders and scan locations by hitting the three dots.
  • Once you see Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 show up, select it from the list.
  • Scroll down a bit until you see the “Driver Settings” heading.
  • Here, select DLSS Override – Model Presets
  • Select “Latest” under “Use same settings for all DLSS technologies“

As a devoted fan, I can confidently say that all you’ve got to do is sit back and relax! The ingenious NVIDIA App will effortlessly update to the most recent DLSS version for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, ensuring an exceptional gaming experience on your graphics card.

Use DLSS Swapper

I find this method superior for changing DLSS versions as it’s much more dependable than the NVIDIA Application, and it even allows for the updating of FSR and XeSS versions.

  • Download the latest version from GitHub and install it.
  • Launch DLSS Swapper and it will automatically scan through your library and show all the games that are currently using some form of DLSS, including Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.
  • I recommend checking “Hide games with no swappable items” in the filter at the top right. This will only show games that have some DLSS or FSR implementation.
  • Now, click on Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 to open a window.
  • Select the value under DLSS, which is 3.7.10 by default.
  • Now, choose the latest DLSS version, which is v310.2.1 (Don’t worry, this is still DLSS 4)
  • You’ll have to click the download button on the right first, and then select Swap

The update for the DLSS Swapper and the game has been made. Now, feel free to lower the DLSS quality preset from what you were previously using. In my personal experience, the performance preset at 1440p resolution seems quite good now, which is not typically the case with DLSS 3.
