NVIDIA’s weekly RTX update is a pretty tasty one for PC gamers, especially if your rig is already running a GeForce RTX card or gaming laptop. This round, DLSS 4.5 is confirmed for Star Wars: Galactic Racer and 007 First Light, while Dead As Disco and Conan Exiles are also getting DLSS support.
For Malaysian and SEA players, this matters because PC gaming here is very hardware-sensitive. Not everyone is casually upgrading GPUs every year, and a lot of gamers are on RTX laptops or mid-range desktop builds. DLSS support can be the difference between “wah smooth gila” and “bro why is my FPS crying?” — especially when games start pushing ray tracing and heavier visuals.
Star Wars: Galactic Racer launches October 6 with DLSS 4.5
The biggest name here is Star Wars: Galactic Racer, which launches worldwide on October 6. On GeForce RTX PCs and laptops, the game will feature DLSS 4.5, giving RTX users a performance-focused option right from launch.
The setup sounds like a proper arcade racing spin on the Star Wars universe. After the Empire’s fall, the galaxy is trying to rebuild under the New Republic — but in the messy Outer Rim, speed becomes the new obsession. That chaos gives birth to the Galactic League, an illegal racing circuit backed by syndicates, gambling money and pilots chasing fame.
Basically, it is Star Wars racing with underground energy. If the handling and track design land properly, this could be the kind of game that works well for quick online sessions, especially for players who miss that futuristic arcade racer vibe.
There are also digital deluxe extras mentioned, including three Deluxe Arcade events, a Deluxe Livery Pack inspired by the Naboo N-1 Starfighter, an online multiplayer banner pack with an exclusive insignia and background, plus an 80-page digital art book featuring character, vehicle and location artwork from Fuse Games.
007 First Light also gets the DLSS 4.5 treatment
NVIDIA also says 007 First Light is part of this DLSS 4.5 wave, with a new look at the upcoming game. The source material does not go deep into gameplay details here, but the important bit for PC players is that GeForce RTX support is already being highlighted before release.
That is usually a good sign for anyone planning to play on PC instead of console. If the game leans into cinematic set pieces, lighting-heavy environments or stealth-action sequences, DLSS could help keep performance stable without forcing players to tank visual quality.
Dead As Disco and Conan Exiles join the DLSS list
Meanwhile, Dead As Disco is entering Early Access with DLSS support, and Conan Exiles is also being added to NVIDIA’s DLSS lineup.
Early Access games can be rough on optimisation, so DLSS support at this stage is useful. It gives players more headroom while the game continues to evolve. For Conan Exiles, which has been around for a while, DLSS is more of a welcome quality-of-life upgrade for PC players who still spend time surviving, building and getting destroyed by the world.
Why Malaysian PC gamers should care
DLSS is not just marketing fluff anymore. In SEA, where RTX gaming laptops are common and desktop GPU prices still make people think twice, upscaling tech helps extend the life of existing hardware. If you are on an RTX 3060, 4060, 4070 or newer laptop, features like DLSS can help you stay in the game longer before needing a serious upgrade.
Of course, the final experience still depends on how well each game implements it. But more DLSS support across new and existing titles means better options for PC gamers who want smoother performance without sacrificing too much eye candy.
