Boost your Horizon Forbidden West frame rate with this new update

As the weeks pass by since the Horizon Forbidden West launch, it's only right to hope for a steady stream of updates to ensure the PC port plays as smoothly as possible. Sure enough, Nixxes has just issued the Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition 1.3.55.0 update, bringing with it a particularly nice new feature in the shape of Intel XeSS 1.3. Intel XeSS is big blue's equivalent to Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR, in that it provides a smarter way for games to render from a lower render resolution to a higher upscaled output resolution without putting a big dent in image quality. As a result, you can boost your Horizon Forbidden West frame rate while hardly noticing a difference in the look of the game. Read the rest of the story...
