Arm Launches Brand New GPU Flagship ‘Immortalis’

Arm has launched its latest flagship GPU called ‘Immortalis’. This flagship adds to Arm’s portfolio of GPUs which already includes Mali, the world’s most shipped GPU at 8 billion units to date.

Semiconductor giant Arm has announced the launch of Immortalis, its new flagship GPU. The GPU is designed for the very best flagship smartphones coming to the market, with gaming excellence at the heart of the design.

“Immortalis-G715 delivers ultimate gaming experiences with the highest performance and very best graphics features. One of these features is ray tracing, with Immortalis-G715 being the first Arm GPU to offer hardware-based Ray Tracing support on mobile”, announced the Arm blog.

The new flagship is Arm’s first GPU to offer hardware-based Ray Tracing support which is designed specifically for mobile. Ray Tracing is a computer graphics technique that creates realistic lighting and shadows by modeling the paths that individual light rays take around a scene. This delivers more realistic gaming experiences. 

Immortalis-G715 is slated to be featured in flagship smartphones from 2023. 

Arm has also announced the launch of the new premium Arm Mali-G715 GPU that brings new and updated graphics and GPU features to mobile. These include Variable Rate Shading for significant energy savings and a further gaming performance boost, and an improved Execution Engine. The second GPU in the premium range - Arm Mali-G615 GPU - offers the same features, but at a lower core count of 6 or below compared to Mali-G715’s 7-9 cores.
