Starfield's Missing PC Feature Arrives In New Update

Starfield's long-promised DLSS update is finally available through a beta test on PC. When Starfield released on September 6, developer Bethesda faced backlash from fans because its space-fairing action role-playing game didn’t support Nvidia's DLSS upscaling technology at launch. The tech—which allows players to get better framerate performance on their PCs without sacrificing the game's image quality—was such a hot commodity that fans flocked to a fan-made NexusMod in its absence. Now, Starfield Beta Update 1.8.83 will let you test out the game with DLSS support before it officially launches on Xbox and PC (though the DLSS aspect of the update will only apply to PCs, obviously).
