At its GTC 2026 event, NVIDIA has officially announced DLSS 5, a new version of its Deep Learning Super Sampling technology. The next generation of its AI-powered graphics technology introduces neural rendering techniques designed to create more realistic lighting and materials in games. The feature is expected to launch later this year.
NVIDIADLSS has long been used to upscale lower-resolution frames into higher-resolution images using AI, boosting performance while maintaining visual quality, with DLSS 4.5 being the most recent update. The new version takes that concept further by using neural networks to assist with parts of the rendering pipeline itself, rather than simply reconstructing pixels.
What’s new in DLSS 5?
The biggest shift with DLSS 5 is the introduction of neural rendering, a technique where AI helps generate elements of a scene, such as lighting, materials, and surface detail, rather than relying entirely
