Hello! As per the intro, we now have new items available on store.digitalfoundry.net - the white Bespoke t-shirt, Bespoke zippy hoodie and - a hushed awe, please - a new, massive DF Fighters mouse pad. Be sure to check that out.

As for the Direct itself? We take a very early first look at FSR 3.1's improved spatial upscaling, which 'dropped' just prior to recording. The team discuss Capcom's reveal of a NEW Dead Rising remaster/remake, while we have first impressions on a potentially game-changing patch for Dragon's Dogma 2. And just why is PlayStation 5 so technically competitive with Xbox Series X, despite having less horsepower? It's been a mystery for years, but we may finally have some answers.

Oh... and as usual, if you're a newcomer to the DF Supporter Program and want to get the Direct as an early access podcast, please ignore any links on Patreon itself and use this one: https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/593963

DF Direct Weekly #169: Dragon's Dogma 2 Fixed? FSR 3.1 First Look, Dead Rising Remake

In the latest DF Direct Weekly, we take a very early first look at FSR 3.1's improved spatial upscaling, which 'dropped' just prior to recording. The team discuss Capcom's reveal of a NEW Dead Rising remaster/remake, while we have first impressions on a potentially game-changing patch for Dragon's Dogma 2. And just why is PlayStation 5 so technically competitive with Xbox Series X, despite having less horsepower? It's been a mystery for years, but we may finally have some answers.
