DLSS 5 was launched in Medal of Honor European Assault using the PCSX2 emulator on an RTX 4070 Super.

Nvidia has officially released DLSS 5, debuting in NBA 2K27 and arriving for 28 new titles on GeForce NOW. While the technology is officially supported on RTX 50-series Blackwell cards, Nvidia plans to extend support to older GPUs without granting users full control. Independent developers have already released a DLSS 5 Swapper tool that enables neural rendering in games lacking native DLSS support. This tool was used to run Medal of Honor European Assault via the PCSX2 emulator on an RTX 4070 Super.
