Summon Your Consoleâs Power
HDR and AMD FSR 3 Console Support is coming to Immortals of Aveum!
Itâs been a while, and thatâs because not only are we hard at work on our next project (shhhhh!....), weâre also continuing to work on Immortals of Aveum⢠so more players than ever can enjoy it to the fullest. That means two big updates are coming your way: HDR (high dynamic range) support on all platforms, and thanks to our incredibly talented partners at Enduring Games, IOA will be the first game to rollout AMD FidelityFX⢠Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3) with frame generation on consoles!
Another huge plus? đ Immortals of Aveum arrives on PlayStation Plus as part of the April Game Catalog!
Weâre immensely thankful to our incredible community for all the support, suggestions, bug reports, and for taking the time to play and chat about Immortals. Your feedback fuels our studio! So read on to learn more about what weâve been up to and enter the world of SUPER RESOLUTION!
Playing is Believing
While you probably heard that our launch didnât have the initial commercial impact we hoped for, yâall have shown us tremendous support through your comments and messages, by referring friends, and swapping expert advice. Youâre not alone in your sentiments about IoAâ Immortals of Aveumâs purchase rate for people who played the demo is 2-3x higher than EAâs average on their other game demos. Weâre grateful for an average 82% user score across digital storefronts. Players getting hands-on with the game and sharing their experiences continues to prove that when it comes to IOA, playing is believing.
The industry has recognized some of our achievements in IoA as well â weâre honored to receive the NAVGTR award for Best Art Direction in a fantasy game! Weâre also proud to be recognized with seven NAVGTR nominations, as well as a nomination for âOutstanding Visual Effects in a Real-Time Projectâ by the Visual Effects Society.
We want to take a moment to say a huge âThank you!â to the players, press, creators, fellow developers and colleagues whoâve joined us on this journey so far. It hasnât been all sunshine and rainbows, yet weâre optimistic about the future. No one says it better than our CEO and founder, Bret Robbins, when he confides in GamesIndustry.Biz about Immortals and the future of the studio.
Which brings us to the latest game updatesâŚ
HDR on Console Arrives in Immortals of Aveum in Patch 1.0.6.3
Releasing TODAY, patch 1.0.6.3 brings HDR (high dynamic range) to Immortals of Aveum on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. HDR support for PC is on the way soon in a future update. Aveumâs stunning visuals take on new life in HDR with deeper shadows, brighter highlights, and more vibrant colors. Weâre pleased to announce that this long-awaited, highly requested update is available for all Immortals players today. Read the patch notes here.
Bringing HDR to IOA was something our team felt very passionate about, and that meant taking the time to do it right. Although Aveum is brimming with magic, turning on HDR didnât magically make everything look the way we wanted it to. Caldera needed some extra love in the form of new lava shaders, new VFX, and other touch ups to make it look great in both SDR and HDR. Game development is always full of surprises. Nevertheless, the result is a richer, more visually captivating journey through Aveum that we hope new and old battlemages alike will enjoy.
AMD FSR 3 Comes to Consoles with Patch 1.0.6.4
Thanks to the hard work of our wonderful partners at Enduring Games, patch 1.0.6.4 will soon bring AMD FidelityFX⢠Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3) with frame generation to Immortals of Aveum on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S!
Weâre pumped that Immortals of Aveum will be the first game to implement FSR 3 with frame gen on consoles. Soon, console and PC players alike can take advantage of FSR 3's temporal upscaling, advanced frame generation, and built-in latency reduction technology for improved framerates and game performance.
The FSR 3 update will also extend support for Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) monitors and TVs on both PC and console, which will improve frame pacing and reduce occurrences of judder or screen tears. Additionally, FSR 3 on PC will be updated to a newer, better version that will further improve visual quality and performance of its temporal upscaling.
Patch 1.0.6.4 is in the works and set to be released in the coming weeks. Weâll have more information on the release timing as we get closer, so stay tuned!
