NVIDIA is on a spree to add games to its library of NVIDIA Reflex supported games and Overwatch is another eSports game to officially support the tech.

Now *Overwatch* players with GeForce GPUs can benefit from NVIDIA Reflex with the technology’s addition to the game today. [NVIDIA Reflex](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/reflex-low-latency-platform/) reduces system latency to further improve player competitiveness, allowing them to acquire targets faster, react quicker, and increase aim precision simply by enabling NVIDIA Reflex in a game’s settings.

The split second improvements in targeting that NVIDIA Reflex enables can be the difference between digital life or death. By reducing system latency for *Overwatch *players Reflex ensures the best experience for gamers regardless of hero, ability, or weapons used. 

***Rust* and *Ghostrunner* Are Adding Reflex, too.**

NVIDIA also announced two new games that will be getting NVIDIA Reflex latency reducing technology soon.

- Facepunch Studios’ phenomenally successful *Rust*
- One More Level’s futuristic ninja action game *Ghostrunner*

“*In Rust everyone wants you dead, reduced latency with Reflex will make sure you’re staying ahead of the competition. It’s as simple as enabling Reflex through the options menu.*” 

– Helk, Rust’s Project Lead, Designer & Programmer

**NVIDIA Reflex Keeps Getting Better**

Other improvements to NVIDIA Reflex include:

-  A new enhancement to ‘Boost’ mode that can reduce latency in certain CPU-bound scenarios.

- *Fortnite *has implemented the optimization and players can see up to a 15% latency reduction in these CPU bound scenarios. 
- *Valorant *will be releasing their update in the next patch.  Early testing is showing a 10-15% improvement in CPU-bound scenarios. 
- Introduction of four new Reflex Latency Analyzer-compatible mice, including:

- ASUS ROG KERIS WIRED
- ASUS ROG KERIS WIRELESS
- CORSAIR SABRE PRO CHAMPION SERIES
- CORSAIR SABRE RGB PRO CHAMPION SERIES
- Three mice manufacturers have released firmware updates to enable Reflex Latency Analyzer, including:

- AOPEN Fire Legend GM310
- Acer Predator Cestus 350
- Razer Deathadder v2 Pro

- Acer has released the new Predator X25 360Hz Reflex Latency Analyzer-equipped monitor 
- NVIDIA’s GeForce Experience companion application has been updated to include several user- requested features, including:

- The ability to log all performance monitoring data to a CSV file – including FPS and  latency stats from Reflex Latency Analyzer. 
- The ability to choose the number of samples that Reflex Latency Analyzer will use to average. 
- The addition of GPU utilization to the latency metrics set to help easily identify when a game is CPU- or GPU-bound.
