The new FSR 4.1 support covers Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards. It also works with Ryzen AI Max 300 and 400 series processors. Ryzen AI 9 300 and 400 series chips are supported, too.
The driver also added support for four new games. These were Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, Final Fantasy Resonance, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered.
