AMD's previous attempt at a successor to the driver-level Radeon Anti-Lag — Anti-Lag+ — launched in such a poor state that many games saw it as an attempted cheat, since it was injecting code into active applications to achieve its results. AMD promised that Anti-Lag+ would return, and now it appears to have done so in the form of Radeon Anti-Lag 2. Anti-Lag 2 is a true Nvidia Reflex competitor in every way that matters — including requiring direct support from the developers to be implemented. Games that don't support Anti-Lag 2 will be restricted to the regular old Anti-Lag solution.
AMD released benchmarking results in Counter-Strike 2 running at Very High settings, with input latency compared between No Anti-Lag, Anti-Lag, and Anti-Lag 2. Anti-Lag 2 in Counter-Strike 2 is achieving input lag as low as 11 ms, which seems on par with the sub-15 ms ranges that Nvidia so proudly touts on its page for Reflex in Counter-Strike 2.
