General support
- Use at own risk in multiplayer games where Special K might have an adverse effect.
- This is a general overview of the level of support Special K has for different render APIs, as well as what additional features might be available for each API.
- Direct3D refers to the 3D render API of DirectX. In general, the terms 'Direct3D' and 'DirectX' are often interchangeable when discussing games.
| Render API | Notes |
|---|---|
| DirectDraw DDraw |
Requires dgVoodoo 2 to wrap the calls to Direct3D 11. |
| Direct3D 2-8 | Requires dgVoodoo 2 to wrap the calls to Direct3D 11. |
| Direct3D 9 | Basic support as well as texture modding support. |
| Direct3D 10 | Unsupported, although flip model override is known to work in some games. |
| Direct3D 11 | Enhanced support, including HDR injection, texture modding, flip model override, and shader debugging. |
| Direct3D 12 | Enhanced support like D3D11, though no texture mods yet. |
| OpenGL | Promoted to OpenGL-IK (uses an interop system where D3D11 is used for final presentation), which brings enhancements such as flip model and HDR injection. |
| Vulkan | No support, except in HDR enabled modes running on Nvidia hardware, where Special K hooks the Nvidia DXGI/Direct3D 11 interop layer instead. |
Game-specific support
- Use at own risk in multiplayer games where Special K might have an adverse effect.
- This is a crowdsourced list of games compatible with Special K. Feel free to edit the page if a game is missing from the list.
- The statuses displayed are based on the ReShade compatibility list and so tries to mirror that one as much as possible.
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Perfect | For use with games with no known issues with Special K. |
| Good | For games where minor issues or limitations exists. This can for example be games that are only supported by a specific version of Special K, or only through one type of injection (e.g. local and not global). |
| Major Issues | For games where major issues occurs, but can be worked around. Such as crashes on launch that can be worked around by changing a config parameter for Special K. |
| Crash | Game crashes on injection with no way of working around it. |
| Blocked | Game blocks Special K from being injected -- most common in games with anti-cheat protections. |
| Caution | There is conflicting reports whether using Special K results in a ban or not. Use at your own risk. |
| Banned | Using Special K is known to result in a banned account. Do not use Special K with this game. |
| Game | Render API | Version | Injection | Status | Additional Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Axiom Verge | OpenGL | Crash | |||
| Batman: Arkham Asylum | Direct3D 9 | Major Issues | Consistent freezes. Try dgVoodoo 2. | ||
| Batman: Arkham City | Direct3D 9, Direct3D 11 | Good | Use DirectX 11 mode. No texture injection support. | ||
| Batman: Arkham Origins | Direct3D 9, Direct3D 11 | Good | Use DirectX 11 mode. No texture injection support. | ||
| Bayonetta | Direct3D 9 | Good | Needs to be tested further. | ||
| Dark Souls III | Direct3D 11 | Caution | Current versions of SpecialK can cause bans if played online, reported that v0.4.0 of Souls Unsqueezed is the latest version that works[1] | ||
| Death Stranding | Direct3D 12 | Crash | |||
| Doom Eternal | Vulkan | Major Issues | Only possible on Nvidia hardware with HDR enabled. | ||
| Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster | Direct3D 11 | Perfect | |||
| Final Fantasy XV | Direct3D 11 | Perfect | Local injection is recommended as not all threads are captured.[2] | ||
| Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance | Direct3D 9 | Good | May fix frame rate issues on some displays. | ||
| Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain | Direct3D 11 | Crash | |||
| NieR: Automata | Direct3D 11 | Local | Good | Some versions of the FAR mod (v0.7.0.23 in particular) is known to cause performance degradation after an hour or more of play. | |
| Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee | OpenGL | Crash | |||
| Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD | OpenGL | Crash | |||
| Persona 4 Golden | Direct3D 11 | Good | Requires "Ignore Textures Without Mipmaps" to be enabled otherwise text becomes increasingly more corrupted | ||
| Red Dead Redemption 2 | Vulkan | Major Issues | Only possible on Nvidia hardware with HDR enabled. | ||
| Rise of the Tomb Raider | Direct3D 11 | Perfect | |||
| Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice | Direct3D 11 | Good | Custom Reshade doesn't work.
Requires the following set in SpecialK.ini to be able to earn achievements: [Steam.Log] Silent=true |
||
| Shadow of the Tomb Raider | Direct3D 11 | Perfect | DirectX 11 will likely incur a performance drop vs DirectX 12. | ||
| Spark the Electric Jester | Direct3D 9 | Crash | Game crashes when pausing. | ||
| Tales of Berseria | Direct3D 9 | Local | Good | Use the game-specific version, see TBFix. | |
| Tales of Symphonia | Direct3D 9 | Local | Good | Use the game-specific version, see TSFix. | |
| Tales of Zestiria | Direct3D 9 | Local | Good | Use the game-specific version, see TZFix. | |
| Trover Saves the Universe | Direct3D 11 | Good | Needs to be tested further. |
