AMD’s lag-busting Anti-Lag 2 tech is now available to all game developers
AMD launches their Anti-Lag 2 SDK to developers and promises FSR 3 integration
AMD has officially launched their Radeon Anti-Lag 2 SDK to developers. Theoretically, this allows any DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 game to be updated with support for AMD’s lag-busting technology.
AMD Anti-Lag 2 is an evolved version of AMD’s original Anti-Lag technology. Simply put, it delivers deeper latency optimisations than AMD’s original driver-level Anti-Lag technology through direct game integration. Developers can integrate AMD’s new Anti-Lag technology into the optimal point inside their game’s logic to achieve maximum latency reduction.
Thanks to this technology, users of AMD RDNA 1 and newer GPUs will enjoy more responsive, less latent gaming experiences. That said, developers will need to integrate this technology into their games.
Looking to get even more out of our Anti-Lag technology? â±ï¸
Now you can reduce your game latency even further by integrating @amdradeon Anti-Lag 2 directly into your game, with the GPUOpen release of its SDK! 🎉

Radeon Anti-Lag 2 is “coming soon” to FSR 3
AMD has confirmed that their latest anti-lag technology will soon be integrated into a new open-source release of FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3). This will allow developers to integrate both technologies into their games simultaneously. Since anti-lag mitigates the latency downsides of Frame Generation, this is an excellent move from AMD. Additionally, this should help boost the adoption of Anti-Lag, as it will be packaged with AMD’s more popular FSR 3 technology.
It is unknown what other benefits will come with AMD’s new version of FSR 3. AMD recently launched an improved version of its driver-level Fluid Motion Frames technology, so it is possible that AMD has improved its FSR 3 Frame Generation technology using similar methods.
You can join the discussion on AMD’s new Anti-Lag SDK on the OC3D Forums.
