Building on the success made with Doom’s implementation of Vulkan, and the overall through-the-roof performance levels for that title considering its graphical quality, AMD today announced a long term strategic partnership with Bethesda, a major game publisher (“The Elder Scrolls” series, “Doom,” and “Dishonored,” etc.) This, according to AMD’s Raja Koduri, will see Bethesda optimize its entire library of games (at least the recent ones), for AMD Ryzen 8-core processors, and the upcoming Radeon “Vega” GPU architecture. The first product of this new partnership will be the 2017 release of “Prey,” the hotly anticipated survival-horror game.
