Starfield datamine shows no sign of Nvidia DLSS or Intel XeSS

Investigations into the Starfield preload files reveal a distinct lack of Nvidia DLSS or Intel XeSS footprints, suggesting it will only support AMD FSR.

The Starfield preload has begun, and it’s already offering insights into the RPG game, despite it not being playable yet. Unfortunately, datamining has seemingly confirmed concerns that Starfield will not launch with Nvidia DLSS or Intel XeSS upscaling technologies.

According to Twitter user Sebasti66855537, the Starfield preload files show no sign of Nvidia DLSS or Intel XeSS. Sharing a screenshot of the game’s expanded installation folder, there’s nary a trace of team green or blue to be found.

Fucking sucks man. I wonder if they're even going to come through with FSR 2.2 or better. Lots of games don't.

Absolutely mindboggling decision. They're alienating like 60+% of the PC userbase, which is the one that's actually gonna buy the thing. And the remaining 25% of nvidia users that have a 10-series card or before that cant use dlss is going to hate it regardless.

60? More like 80-90%

My local computer shop only allow orders for NVIDIA GPUs, and supply for AMD GPUs are low, I don't think they care that much.

Also everyone can use FSR but it gonna look bad with all the stupid artifacts. I like AMD cards because it plug and play with Linux but my past experience with Windows drivers are just poor.

They’re not really alienating anyone but it does suck

Yeah 80-90% of pc gamers use nvidia gpus but not 100% of those gamers have DLSS capable cards. 10-class and 9-class cards still have a large percentage of users.

MS GDK supports DLSS and/or XeSS?
I mean the game is being made using a common devkit for Xbox and PC.

Anything not common needs to be done as an extra and I don't think they have time to do these extras for launch from the state of the game showed in previous shows.
These extras will come eventually in post launch support.

One of the requirements for using DLSS is that your engine has to support it. Does their shitty engine even support it?
