11 Comments

Nixxes has released a brand new update for the PC version of Shadow of the Tomb Raider. This new patch adds support for AMD’s FidelityFX tech, allowing gamers to experience sharper images than before.

Furthermore, this upadte adds a new option, Hidden City Outfit Restriction. By deactivating this option, the game will allow you to equip any outfit while exploring the Hidden City. Do note that this may potentially cause narrative inconsistencies though.

Lastly, this patch also comes with various bug fixes that Nixxes has not detailed.

Before closing, we don’t know whether this FidelityFX sharpening technique will work on the NVIDIA GPUs. For the time being, we suggest using the Image Sharpening option via the Control Panel that the green team introduced via its latest drivers.

As always, Steam will download this patch the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog.
