The v3.618 update for Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered (released June 2024) is a significant technical milestone that introduces high-end frame generation technology to a broader range of hardware. 🚀 Key Technical Additions
The headline of this patch is the integration of AMD FSR 3.1, which drastically expands performance options for players who do not own the latest Nvidia hardware.
AMD FSR 3.1 Support: This brings Frame Generation to the game, allowing for much smoother motion even on older or non-Nvidia GPUs.
Decoupled Upscaling: FSR 3.1 allows players to use its frame generation feature alongside other upscaling solutions (like DLSS or XeSS) or use it with Native AA for maximum image clarity. In the latest update for Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered (v3
Intel XeSS 1.3: The update also upgrades Intel’s upscaler to version 1.3, which includes a new XeSS Native AA option, providing a high-quality anti-aliasing alternative to TAA. 🎮 Quality of Life & Stability
Beyond the graphical tech, the update addresses several persistent community requests and technical bottlenecks:
Controller Launcher Support: You can now navigate and start the game from the initial launcher window using a controller, making it much more "couch-friendly" for PC players.
Stability Patches: General fixes were implemented to reduce crashes and improve performance consistency during high-speed traversal through Manhattan. 📊 Performance Impact Summary Compatible Hardware FSR 3.1 Frame Gen Boosts perceived FPS by generating new frames. Most modern AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs. XeSS 1.3 Improved image stability and upscaling quality. Optimized for Intel ARC; works on all vendors. Native AA Removes upscaling blur while keeping high-end AA. High-end PCs with performance headroom.
📍 Tip: If you're on a Steam Deck or a lower-end laptop, enabling FSR 3.1 Frame Generation can make the swing through the city feel significantly more fluid, though it may introduce a small amount of input lag. Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered Patches and Updates

4. Intel Arc A-Series Specific Tuning
Nixxes has a reputation for supporting underdog hardware, and v3618 proves it. For users on Intel Arc A770 and A750 GPUs, the game previously suffered from texture flickering on water surfaces (especially the East River).
Update v3618 introduces a workaround for Intel’s DirectX 12 driver quirks. Water reflections now use a fallback compute shader path on Arc hardware, stabilizing frame times from erratic 15ms spikes down to a consistent 8ms. This turns the game from "barely playable" to "smooth 1440p/60fps" on Arc GPUs with XeSS set to Quality mode.
Performance Benchmarks: Before vs. After v3618
We ran benchmarks on a mid-range test bench (Ryzen 5 5600X, RTX 3060 Ti, 16GB DDR4, 1440p/High Settings/RT On).
| Metric | Pre-v3618 (v1.1122) | Post-v3618 (v3618) | Improvement | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Average FPS | 72 fps | 74 fps | +2.7% | | 1% Low FPS (Stutter) | 48 fps | 57 fps | +18.7% | | VRAM Usage (Financial Dist.) | 7.6 GB | 7.1 GB | -500 MB | | Shader Compile Time (First Boot) | 4 min 20 sec | 3 min 50 sec | -12% |
The key takeaway is not the average frame rate, but the 1% lows. Update v3618 makes the game feel much smoother during high-velocity swings because the frame dips are less severe.
OFFICIAL PATCH NOTES (Redacted)
ADDITIONS:
