AMD 26.2.2 driver is here with Resident Evil Requiem and Marathon support

Today is a graphics driver-filled day, as now AMD has joined in on releasing a new update following Intel and Nvidia's drops. The AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.2.2 driver is here with support for the biggest two game releases happening soon: Capcom's horror experience Resident Evil Requiem and Bungie's extraction shooter Marathon.

AMD hasn't gone into detail on what sort of improvements the driver brings to these titles, but it's a recommended install for both before jumping in. It may be a good idea to install the driver before playing Marathon's server slam beta that's kicking off today too.

The fixed issues of this driver are these:

• Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Roblox Player (Car Zone Racing & Drifting) when task switching between media on Radeon™ RX 7000 series products.
• Texture flickering or corruption may appear while using Windows desktop applications with Instant Replay and Record Desktop enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series products.

Here are the known issues the driver team is still working on:

• Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while loading a saved game in Cyberpunk 2077 with Path Tracing enabled. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible.
• Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible.
• Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD Graphics Products.
• AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition when playing Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, Call of Duty®: Black Ops 7, and Resident Evil Requiem when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products.

The new AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.2.2 driver is now available for download from the AMD Software app as well as its official changelog page.
