Indiana Jones Update Set to Enhance Gameplay with DLSS 4

Bethesda's upcoming Update 3 for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is slated for release next week, bringing a host of improvements and fixes. While complete patch notes are pending, Bethesda's initial announcement highlights the addition of support for Nvidia DLSS 4, encompassing Multi-Frame Generation and DLSS Ray Reconstruction.

This update is highly anticipated by players, addressing numerous game-breaking bugs that have plagued the title since its December launch. Bethesda previously indicated that February's update would introduce enhanced graphical features and options, along with bug fixes targeting issues preventing 100% game completion and hindering traversal mechanics in Sukhothai (such as vine climbing and squeezing through walls). The extent to which these specific issues are resolved remains to be seen.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, a Microsoft-owned title available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and day-one on Game Pass, has already attracted 4 million players. The MachineGames production has received widespread critical acclaim and multiple awards, including three at the D.I.C.E. Awards. A PlayStation 5 version is expected this spring.

Interestingly, Harrison Ford, the iconic Indiana Jones himself, commented on Troy Baker's portrayal of the character, stating that Baker's performance demonstrates that "you don't need artificial intelligence to steal my soul." In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Ford expressed his satisfaction with Baker's performance, emphasizing the talent and creative vision behind it, rather than AI, as the key to its success. He lauded Baker's work as "brilliant."
