Samsung Reveals First-Ever Game With HDR10 Plus Gaming Compatibility, Promises Elevated Visuals
Portfolio Pulse from Franca Quarneti
Samsung Electronics has announced the imminent release of the first game to support the HDR10 Plus Gaming standard, The First Descendant, developed by Nexon. The HDR10 Plus Gaming standard automatically calibrates brightness and colors based on the capabilities of the connected monitor or TV, enhancing visual details and color accuracy. The game is likely to be supported on PC due to the lack of support for this HDR format on Sony and Microsoft consoles. Nvidia revealed in November 2022 that its RTX and 16-series graphics cards for PCs would support HDR10 Plus Gaming. Samsung's high-end TVs and Odyssey gaming monitors, as well as select Amazon, Panasonic, TCL and Vizio TVs, are compatible with this standard.
