The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess PC Port Is Out And Amazing On Steam Deck

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has been ported to PC through a project called Dusk, developed by TwilitRealm, which involved reverse-engineering the GameCube version. Dusk features enhanced resolution, frame-rate support, customizable settings, rebindable controls, gyro aiming, adjustable gameplay difficulty, and the option to mirror the world like the Wii version. The setup process requires legally dumping the original game copy, after which it integrates easily with Steam. The port runs efficiently, maintaining performance below 11W even at 90 FPS, and includes its own achievement system.

Android gets Vulkan-base Lossless Scaling frame generation, allowing Android devices to achieve triple-digit FPS in PC games

Frame generation technology, previously common in PC gaming, is now available on Android devices through a new Vulkan-based iteration of Lossless Scaling's technology. This technology can be accessed through a standalone version or GameHub, both requiring the purchase of Lossless Scaling for .99 on Steam. LSFG on Android offers features such as up to an 8x frame generation multiplier, performance mode, HDR mode, anti-artifact mode, and flow scale adjustment. Despite some limitations, such as noticeable artifacting and added latency, this technology can significantly improve frame rates on Android devices, particularly for PC game emulation.

Frame-Gen to 30fps? Lego Batman’s “Bizarre” PC Specs Sheet Is a Case Study in How Not To Market a Game

The PC system requirements for the upcoming Lego Batman game indicate that the recommended settings and 4K configurations aim for a smooth 60 frames per second (fps) experience with frame generation technology enabled. The base frame rate is expected to be around 30fps, an improvement over the 15fps baseline. Major graphics card manufacturers suggest a base frame rate of 45-60fps for showcasing frame generation capabilities. Critics note that recommending older CPUs and GPUs may mislead gamers regarding compatibility. A native 30fps is considered the minimum standard, with expectations for mainstream hardware to achieve near 60fps using technologies like FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), Intel's Xe Super Sampling (XeSS), or Nvidia's Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS). The game is set to release on May 22nd.

Indie shooter devs pull a reverse-Concord: No one played their game, but they ‘make it free to play and keep the servers online indefinitely’ anyway

Blindfire, a multiplayer first-person shooter, has officially launched after a year and a half in early access. The game features a unique mechanic that requires players to use their senses and technology to detect opponents. Developers Double Eleven have made the game free-to-play to ensure the servers remain operational for years, despite active development concluding about a year ago. The full release includes a final update with two new weapons, achievements, new skins, and full haptic support. An "Audio Aim Assist" feature has been added for blind and partially sighted players, providing audio cues for orientation and enemy detection. The developers expressed pride in their work, despite not achieving mainstream success, and the community hopes for self-hosting options in the future.
