Microsoft Extends Precompiled Game Shaders to GeForce RTX This Month

Posted on Edited on
Microsoft is extending Advanced Shader Delivery to GeForce RTX, letting developers distribute precompiled shaders with games.

Quick Report

Microsoft says Advanced Shader Delivery will support GeForce RTX cards and the RTX Spark platform later this month. The system lets developers package hardware-specific, precompiled shaders with a game, reducing the amount players need to compile locally.

This is a compatibility expansion, not a new GPU feature or a guaranteed fix for every title. Microsoft has also listed Intel Arc B-series and newer Core Ultra graphics among the platforms gaining support in the same rollout, broadening the hardware covered by the delivery system.
