Arrowhead Game Studios will release an optimization patch for Helldivers 2 on May 27, 2026. The update introduces modern upscaling technologies across PC and console platforms. Developers aim to improve visual clarity while maintaining performance standards.

New upscaling technologies improve visual clarity across PC and console platforms.

PC players gain support for FSR 4.0.3, FSR 3.1.5, DLSS 4.5, and XeSS 3.0. PS5 Pro systems receive PSSR 1 upscaling technology. Standard PS5 and Xbox consoles utilize FSR 3.1.

The Performance preset on PS5 and Xbox Series X now targets a 1440p resolution. The patch also adds Variable Refresh Rate, Variable Rate Shading, Dynamic Resolution Scaling, Reflex, and Anti-Lag 2 support.

Arrowhead Game Studios states that an ongoing campaign to improve performance across the fleet will continue later in the summer. Frame generation support remains unconfirmed for this specific update. PSSR 2 is not included in the current release.
