NVIDIA has been the victim of a cyberattack that has seen the source code for its DLSS (deep learning super sampling) leaked. What is noteworthy about this leak though is that it references nvn2. For those unaware, nvn is the graphics API for the Nintendo Switch, powered by the Tegra X1 chipset.
This is further confirmation that the next Nintendo system will use DLSS and Ray Tracing, and seems to indicate a new system will be coming sooner than expected.

"nvn" is the graphics API that was specifically made for the Switch by Nvidia so "nvn2" is certainly enough to raise my curiosity

Of course, this is all yet to be officially announced, so take things cautiously.
