AMD FSR 3 and FSR 2 Supported Games List
AMD’s FSR 3, or FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 with frame generation, was launched in September 2023 alongside the Radeon RX 7700 XT and Radeon RX 7800 XT. However, with support in just two games on day one, and only a handful more added by the year’s end, adoption for AMD’s answer to DLSS 3 has been slow. The good news is that January 2024 saw more games add FSR 3 support than the first four months of the technology. The adoption looks to be picking up steam thanks to FSR 3’s improved performance in games like Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and AMD confirming that its latency reduction tech Anti-Lag + (a key component of frame generation) is finally coming back. AMD has updated its list of games with FSR 3 and FSR 2 support, and those ‘coming soon.’ FSR 3 includes both Super Resolution upscaling and Frame Generation, with FSR 2 including Super Resolution only. Here’s a look at the current slate of PC games with FSR.
