## Summary

Nvidia has shown DLSS 5 running in Hogwarts Legacy, where its AI-enhanced lighting and materials appear more subtle than in earlier leaked demonstrations. The update matters because it illustrates how developers can tune the technology to improve a game’s visuals while retaining its intended character designs and art style.

Nvidia says the feature can make shadows stand out, upscale textures and sharpen reflections in real time. Hogwarts Legacy is due to receive it on 5 November, with War Thunder to follow in mid-November and Where Winds Meet at launch on 23 November. DLSS 5 is limited to GeForce RTX 50-series hardware, RTX Spark PCs and GeForce NOW Ultimate.
