AMD FSR 4 is in the works for Call of Duty Black Ops 6

AMD is now focusing on the launch of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU, which is anticipated to be the fastest gaming desktop processor for the foreseeable future. However, it looks like this isn't the only front where the red team is acting, as representatives are already talking about launching a new version of FSR on Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

In a recent video, AMD's Chief Engineer Huynh highlighted the company's commitment to enhancing gamers' experiences with FSR 3.1 in the latest Call of Duty while also hinting at the development of next-generation FSR technologies for the same title. The upcoming version is expected to integrate a machine-learning algorithm to optimise performance and visual fidelity and improve battery life on mobile devices.

While specific details regarding how machine learning will enhance gameplay in Black Ops 6 remain scarce, if Nvidia's DLSS is any benchmark, we can expect considerable advancements in error correction and artefact management. AMD has made it clear that future iterations of FSR will be entirely AI-based, marking a noteworthy shift in its approach, which used spatial (version 1.x) and temporal (version 2.x and 3.x) upscaling techniques.

AMD is expected to launch its RDNA 4-powered Radeon RX 8000 series in early 2025. AMD has confirmed that this generation will come equipped with enhanced AI capabilities, potentially introducing dedicated tensor cores similar to those found in Nvidia's RTX series, paving the way for a new era of FSR.

KitGuru says: In terms of quality, do you think AMD FSR 4 will be on par with Nvidia DLSS or Intel XeSS?
