Does Split Fiction Have DLSS and XeSS? – Answered

Split Fiction has finally made its way to PC and consoles, and the launch has been fantastic. It received praise from critics and reached a massive peak player count of well over 200K on Steam. In addition to being a lovely game, the PC port is optimized well.

It also has support for some upscaling technologies, and several settings to tweak. Though, does Split Fiction have NVIDIA DLSS and Intel XeSS support? Here is everything you need to know.

Does Split Fiction Have DLSS and XeSS Support?

As of writing, Split Fiction does not have DLSS or XeSS support, but instead features FSR 3.1 only.

I’m unsure why Split Fiction doesn’t support the more popular upscaling technologies, but players will have to make do with FSR 3.1. It does support the Native AA preset for FSR 3.1 as well, which offers the best visual fidelity compared to its other presets (Quality, Balanced, Performance, Ultra Performance). If you have a decent GPU, I recommend sticking with this option.

Players can also make use of FXAA or TAA instead of FSR 3.1, but I would like to see DLSS and XeSS added in a future update as both of those technologies offer better upscaling reconstruction compared to FSR.

Outside of this omission, Split Fiction runs quite well otherwise. Even if you’re playing this on a Steam Deck, you’ll get a decent experience and can easily hit the 45-60 FPS range with some tweaks. Despite being an Unreal Engine 5 title, Split Fiction doesn’t use expensive technologies like Nanite so the overall experience is closer to Unreal Engine 4.

There are barely any stutters that have become synonymous with Unreal Engine 5 releases, and Hazelight Studios has done a great job of pushing the visuals far while offering a solid frame rate on both PC and consoles.

DLSS would make Split Fiction an even better game on PC, especially with DLSS 4 which produces excellent results even on lower-quality presets. DLSS aside, if you’re looking for your local save files for Split Fiction, or need a reference to the complete controls, we have you covered.
