New AMD Adrenalin Driver Brings Anti-Lag 2 to Dota 2 and Support for New Games

Focusing on the Zenless Zone Zero releases, but especially on Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, Capcom’s new game, the driver AMD Adrenalin 24.7.1 is now available. It also provides support for HYPR-Tune for more games, plus Anti-Lag 2 technology for the popular Dota 2.

Compared to the previous version of AMD’s video driver, the performance gain in Path of the Goddess is between 12 and 16% with the Radeon RX 7600 XT, RX 7800 XT and RX 7900 XTX GPUs, with the game running at 4K.

For Dota 2 players, it is now possible to have more responsive controls thanks to the addition of Anti-Lag 2. Support for this technology happens with the game running on DirectX 11.

The new AMD Adrenalin driver also brings improvements and fixes to Fornite, Tekken 8, Dying Light 2, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy and more. Check out the update notes below:

Anti-Lag 2 Support in Dota 2

• Use the ALT+SHIFT+L hotkey to enable Radeon Anti-Lag 2 latency monitoring. Once enabled, a small white sign will appear in the top left corner of the screen indicating that it is enabled.
• Use ALT+SHIFT+L again to cycle through the following latency monitor display options: No metrics, FPS only, FPS and latency (in ms), FPS and latency (in ms and frames), FPS and latency (in ms and frames) with a legend.
• To compare the difference between Anti-Lag 2 enabled and Anti-Lag disabled, hold down the right CTRL key.
• Currently, Anti-Lag 2 is supported on Dota 2 while using the DirectX 11 API.
