Among the new games that gamers can expect access to with HDR10+ include that latest "Call of Duty" title. HDR10+ Technologies LLC, an industry group with more than 150 adopters, related partners and nearly 9,000 supported devices, has announced the availability of several new HDR10+ GAMING titles from some of the top developers in the gaming industry.
The announcement is the latest in a series of HDR10+ related developments that have occurred over the past year, according to the industry technology group. HDR10+ explains that its high dynamic range format delivers dynamic metadata that offers a number of benefits, including high levels of brightness and contrast; robust standardization; ease-of-implementation; global certification; no licensing fees and seamless compatibility with HDR10. HDR10+ GAMING extends these benefits to game content and displays and automatically calibrates the HDR levels between them.
“The use of HDR10+ technologies has grown exponentially to fully encompass a variety of platforms and providers,” says Bill Mandel, the co-manager of HDR10+ Technologies LLC. “Now with the availability of plug-in cards from NVIDIA, game studios and developers can also realize the full benefits of HDR10+ GAMING on certified monitors and televisions.”

According to the industry group, the inaugural HDR10+ GAMING title, The First Descendant, was announced this past September in cooperation with Nexon Studios. The game, which is scheduled to be released in Summer 2024, can be played on most current PCs.
