NVIDIA To Create More Graphically Intensive, Immersive Games With Updated Game Development Tools; Preemptive Counter To Latecomer Vega

NVIDIA in the Editor's Day last week revealed to industry leaders, press and tech experts regarding updates on a wide array of game development tools. The announcement came alongside the launching of its powerful card, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, promising a 35 percent increase from the flagship GTX 1080. The first update which can substantially impact the PC gaming industry is in its support for Microsoft's DirectX 12 graphics API using the NVIDIA GameWorks platform. NVIDIA is set to standardize the platform and making it less reliant on NVIDIA hardware particularly its proprietary CUDA set-up.
