Den första Berserker Khazan når 170+ FPS vid 8K Max-inställningar med DLSS 4 och RTX 5090

Alright, so The First Berserker: Khazan just dropped, and if you're into Souls-like games, you’ll want to keep an eye on this one. It’s developed by NEXON, runs on Unreal Engine 4, and the big news? This thing flies at 8K resolution when paired with the RTX 5090 and DLSS 4. Yeah, you read that right—170+ FPS at 8K/Max settings. Wild.

We did some testing, and the results are kind of mind-blowing. The setup used for this included an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 32GB DDR5 RAM at 6000MHz, and of course, the beastly RTX 5090. Also running on Windows 10 with the GeForce 572.83 driver.

Now, there’s no in-game toggle for DLSS 4 or Multi-Frame Generation (MFG). You’ll need to fire up the new NVIDIA App to enable both the DLSS 4 SR Transformer Model and MFG X4. But once it’s on, buckle up.

With DLSS 4 Performance Mode + MFG X4, the RTX 5090 was pulling in over 170FPS. And honestly? It looked great. No major visual glitches or artifacts, and input latency stayed nice and low—even with Frame Gen cranked. This is a big deal because MFG X3 and X4 have been known to introduce weird visual bugs in some games, but Khazan handled it surprisingly well.

If you only turn on DLSS 4 Performance Mode (no Frame Gen), you’re still getting a rock-solid experience, clocking over 70FPS consistently at 8K. That’s just with upscaling; no trickery is involved. The base framerate with native 8K (no DLSS, no MFG) lands in the 35-45FPS range, which isn’t bad considering the resolution but definitely not ideal for action-heavy gameplay.

Now, here’s the kicker—DLSS 4’s Transformer Model looks absolutely gorgeous in this game. But if you’ve got an RTX 4090 or 5090 and don’t need to chase 8K, then honestly? DLSS 4 Quality Mode at 4K is where it’s at. The game isn’t particularly demanding, so you can max out the visual fidelity and still get butter-smooth performance. It’s one of those rare cases where you don’t have to sacrifice beauty for frames.

If you're the type that likes to see raw power on display, stay tuned—the performance analysis video at 8K will be coming soon (once YouTube finishes chewing on that ultra-HD footage).

So yeah, The First Berserker: Khazan might not reinvent the Souls-like genre, but it’s already a showcase title for DLSS 4 and the new RTX 5090. Whether you're looking for an excuse to push your high-end rig or just want a new action-RPG to sink your teeth into, this one's definitely worth checking out.
