Intel’s XeSS Upscaling Technology Now Supported by 200+ Games

Intel’s XeSS upscaling technology has made impressive strides, now being supported by over 200 games, highlighting its growing appeal.

Intel’s XeSS: A Rising Competitor to DLSS and FSR

When Intel introduced its XeSS technology, it faced stiff competition from NVIDIA’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR, both well-established in the market. Initially, XeSS struggled to gain traction, but persistent efforts by Intel have transformed it into a credible contender. This progress is evident with the technology now supported in more than 200 titles, as tweeted by @Haze2K1.

The growing support for XeSS clearly reflects consumer interest, as well as a shift by game developers to integrate this technology into their projects. Even with a smaller market share in the GPU arena, Intel’s consistent expansion of XeSS is a promising indicator of its appeal over native GPU options, suggesting a bright future for Intel’s GPU initiatives.

While it’s not clear which specific games support XeSS, the technology is compatible with 201 titles on Steam. Its rapid integration into numerous games this year might be attributed to the overall robust growth in the gaming sector, making its recognition noteworthy, especially considering Intel’s slower performance in the GPU business.

Looking ahead, Intel’s upscaling technology is poised to play a pivotal role. With the upcoming next-gen GPU architectures from Intel, we anticipate not only performance boosts but also greater consumer adoption. This situation could allow XeSS to perform exceptionally well, potentially challenging the current dominance of DLSS and FSR if development keeps its current pace.
