Nvidia releases Game Ready 419.67 drivers for Firestorm, Anthem, Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Sekiro

Nvidia has released their new 419.67 Game Ready Driver, which comes with optimisations for Battlefield V’s Firestorm mode, Anthem, Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. 

In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Nvidia’s 419.67 drivers will offer increased performance and optimised quality, which likely means that Nvidia has updated their DLSS algorithm and has boosted the performance of the game when raytraced shadows are turned on.

Two new G-Sync Compatible monitors have also been added to Nvidia’s drivers alongside G-Sync Compatible Surround support, with Surround support being exclusive to Nvidia’s Turing series graphics cards.  

Below are the driver’s full change notes.
