Back in December 2021, Samsung announced an extension of the HDR10+ display standard that was made especially for console and PC games called, naturally HDR10+ GAMING. Today, well over a year after that announcement, Samsung announced the first game that will this standard.
In a press release, Samsung said that the upcoming Nexon game The First Descendant will include support for HDR10+ GAMING. Samsung and Nexon will team up to showcase the game and its support for the standard at this week's Gamescom 2023 show in Cologne, Germany.
Samsung stated:
HDR10+ GAMING provides gamers with the ultimate HDR game experience through deeper color, contrast and brightness. It also enables more accurate depiction of details in dark shadows and bright highlights, which allows users to fully engage in their gaming adventure.
Currently, the HDR10+ GAMING standard is supported on Samsung's Odyssey 7 and above gaming PC monitors. It's also available on its 2022 and 2023 smart TVs, specifically its Q70 and above televisions that have refresh rates of 120Hz or higher.
