Ahead of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach PC launch scheduled for March 19th, Sony has released a new PC version launch trailer called "No Rain, No Rainbow", as well as confirmed that the game will be getting support for NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS upscaling and frame generation technologies. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will also support ray-traced reflections and ambient occlusion, where ray tracing will be used for surfaces like water and other reflections, while ambient occlusion should bring much more realistic shadows due to ambient lighting effects. Unfortunately, Sony did not include ray tracing in the previously released PC system requirements, so it is left to be seen how the Decima engine handles these effects in terms of CPU and GPU requirements. According to Sony, "these additional PC options are aimed at players with powerful hardware that want to push visual fidelity beyond the "Very High" graphics settings the game already offers."

In addition, the PC version of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will also get uncapped frame rates, more extensive graphics settings options, super-ultrawide (32:9) and ultrawide (21:9) monitor support, full mouse and keyboard support with key binding, spatial sound support, and more. The PC version of the game will also get a new challenge with the "to the wilder" game mode, as well as some other new game features and content additions. Sony also released a new launch trailer for the PC version of the game, which you can check out below.

Today at NVIDIA GTC 2026, Intel announced that Intel Xeon 6 is being used as the processor for NVIDIA DGX Rubin NVL8 systems. This highlights Xeon's role in providing architectural continuity and scalability for GPU-accelerated AI systems as workloads shift toward massive, real-time inference.

"AI is shifting from large-scale training to real‑time, everywhere inference-driven by agentic AI and reasoning systems," said Jeff McVeigh, corporate vice president and general manager, Data Center Strategic Programs at Intel. "In this new era, the host CPU is mission‑critical. It governs orchestration, memory access, model security, and throughput across GPU‑accelerated systems. Intel Xeon 6 delivers leadership performance, efficiency, and compatibility with the extensive x86 software ecosystem that customers rely on to scale inference workloads."

NVIDIA today announced NVIDIA BlueField-4 STX, a modular reference architecture that enables enterprises, cloud and AI providers to easily deploy accelerated storage infrastructure capable of the long-context reasoning required for agentic AI. Traditional data centers provide high-capacity, general-purpose storage but lack the responsiveness required for seamless interaction with AI agents that work across many steps, tools and sessions. Agentic AI demands real-time access to data and contextual working memory to keep conversations and tasks fast and coherent. As context grows, traditional storage and data paths can slow AI inference and reduce GPU utilization.

NVIDIA STX allows storage providers to build infrastructure that keeps data close and accessible at scale, so agentic AI factories can deliver higher throughput and responsiveness across inference, training and analytics. The first rack-scale implementation includes the new NVIDIA CMX context memory storage platform, which expands GPU memory with a high-performance context layer for scalable inference and agentic systems - providing up to 5x tokens per second compared with traditional storage.
