TL;DR:
• Rockstar Games adds DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation to GTA V Enhanced today
• Nvidia's new 580.97 Game Ready driver enables the feature for RTX 50-series cards
• AI-powered frame generation creates additional frames for smoother motion in ray-traced gameplay
• Hellblade II Enhanced also gets DLSS 4 support with new Dark Rot game mode
Rockstar Games just dropped DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation support for Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced, marking a major win for RTX 50-series owners. The update arrives alongside Nvidia's new Game Ready driver 580.97, promising smoother gameplay through AI-generated frames that complement the decade-old game's existing ray tracing capabilities.
Nvidia just handed RTX 50-series owners a major upgrade to one of gaming's most enduring titles. The chipmaker's latest Game Ready driver 580.97 brings DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation to Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced, transforming how the decade-old crime saga performs on modern hardware. The timing couldn't be better for Nvidia, which has been aggressively pushing its AI-powered graphics technologies as a key differentiator for its latest RTX generation. DLSS 4's Multi Frame Generation represents the company's most advanced frame interpolation technology, using machine learning to create entirely new frames between those rendered by the GPU. For GTA V Enhanced players, this means the game's existing ray tracing features now get a significant performance boost through AI-generated frames that smooth out motion without the traditional performance penalties. "The DLSS 4 upgrade complements the game's existing ray tracing capabilities," according to Nvidia's official announcement, "by allowing RTX 50-series owners to enable Multi Frame Generation and generate additional frames to make the motion of gameplay look smoother." This development signals Rockstar's continued investment in keeping GTA V technically relevant as the company works on Grand Theft Auto VI. The Enhanced edition already featured ray-traced reflections and shadows, but DLSS 4 integration suggests Rockstar is treating the title as a testbed for technologies that could appear in future releases. The update extends beyond GTA V, with Ninja Theory's Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced also receiving DLSS 4 support alongside a new Dark Rot game mode. This dual release demonstrates how Nvidia is working with both major publishers and smaller studios to showcase its AI-powered graphics pipeline. For the broader gaming market, today's release reinforces the growing importance of AI in graphics rendering. While AMD pushes its competing FSR technology and Intel develops XeSS, Nvidia's DLSS ecosystem continues expanding with high-profile titles that drive RTX adoption. The 580.97 driver is immediately available through Nvidia's website, with automatic updates rolling out through GeForce Experience. Early reports suggest performance improvements are most noticeable at 4K resolution with ray tracing enabled, where DLSS 4's frame generation can effectively double frame rates in demanding scenes.
Today's DLSS 4 integration into GTA V Enhanced represents more than just a graphics upgrade—it's Nvidia cementing AI-powered rendering as the new standard for high-end gaming. With Rockstar backing the technology and more titles adopting DLSS 4, RTX 50-series owners now have compelling reasons to upgrade, while the broader industry watches to see if AI-generated frames become the norm rather than the exception.
