At its Capcom Open Conference RE: 2026 on October 2, Capcom announced the REX project, a multi-step effort to improve the RE Engine with the long-term goal of turning it into an AI-generation game engine.

PC GamerAI score1717 Roll Up, Roll Up, Can You Spot Which of These Images Are Using DLSS 5?
PC Gamer used the GitHub project DLSS 5 NeuralScreen, a free app that puts DLSS 5 on your entire desktop, to create comparison images and let readers vote on which one has DLSS 5 applied. The test covers 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% intensity, with four runs and two runs per level, using the GTA 6 trailer. Higher intensity and more runs make the model extrapolate further from the input data, making the difference harder to spot.

Logitech's new Replay software, currently in beta, records your gameplay and uses deep learning to pick out the best clips and splice them together. In Counter-Strike 2, the AI's selections included a spawnkill, a spectator-mode shot of the ground, and plenty of missed shots, while manually editing the same match produced much better results. The software is free to download and try, lists 44 compatible games, and showed no noticeable performance impact during recording.
