Bethesda Scores AMD Ryzen, AMD Vega GPU Boost Across Existing Franchises Including VR Expansion
ByBethesda partners with AMD for extraordinary new ventures for the future of gaming landscape. Thus, AMD Ryzen CPU and AMD Vega GPU will play major roles with the developer's gaming titles. On top of the list is the optimization of existing franchises which has been announced to deliver "unprecedented" performance.
The new partnership between AMD and Bethesda was announced briefly during the annual Capsaicin and Cream event at GDC 2017 yesterday, PC Gamer reported. AMD also clarified that the new partnership with Bethesda is definitely not a mere marketing play. The announcement was given by AMD's Raja Koduri citing that their team have dedicated engineers on both sides working on optimizations and leveraging multiple cores including all new features in the Radeon GPUs.
According to Game Spot, a press release statement said that Bethesda and AMD are collaborating to develop and accelerate the implementation of new technologies. This includies the full potential of low-level APIs, such as "Vulkan," and the computing and graphics capacity of AMD Ryzen CPUs, Radeon GPUs and AMD's server solutions across existing Bethesda franchises.
The "Fallout" and "Elder Scrolls" developer claimed that being the undisputed leader in gaming, AMD is the best collaborative partner to share the task during the transformative period in gaming. AMD's credential when it comes to gaming support and processing technology is undoubtedly in its prime after Ryzen demolished records of Intel's Core i7 processor to become the best CPU at the moment.
That being said, end users can expect better performance from future releases from Bethesda running under AMD Ryzen and Vega GPU to be better than any available processor. Thus, Bethesda, with the help from AMD, eyes its entry to Virtual Reality gaming and to realize its goal for worldwide expansion where gamers in every corner of the world could experience an extraordinary feat in gaming entertainment.
