In an interview with Geoff Keighley at E3 2018, AMD announced some new partnerships with Rebellion, Ubisoft and Capcom. According to Scott Herkelman, VP and GM at AMD Radeon Gaming, The Division 2, Resident Evil 2 Remake and Strange Brigade will be optimized for AMD’s graphics cards.
Strange Brigade will be powered by a new version of the Asura Engine and promises to be optimized for the PC platform. Our guess is that the game will support DX12 like Sniper Elite IV, the previous game from Rebellion, did.
On the other hand, Capcom’s Peter Fabiano claimed that the development team is currently working on optimizations for Resident Evil 2 Remake and confirmed that the game will support DX12 and FreeSync.
Unfortunately, Scott Herkelman did not reveal any additional details about The Division 2. We know that the game will be using the Snowdrop Engine and since the first game supported DX12, we expect The Division 2 to also support it. Herkelman claimed that more details about this partnership will be revealed at a later date.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
