I'm not sure it would matter. It doesn't seem that graphics are the limiting factor in games anymore. Plenty of popular games use variations on cartoon-style graphics, for example - Fortnight, Overwatch, Valorant, etc. Seems gameplay, creativity, and player community are more determining factors.

That said, things like improved environmental physics and NPC/enemy AI might enable new and novel game mechanics and creative game design. But that can come from AMD and others too.

Notably the games you listed are all f2p/esports games, and that does matter in terms of how much budget developers have to polish a realistic look vs ship a cartoon and call it the "art style".

I just upgraded to 9700 XT to play ARC Raiders and it's absolutely a feast for the eyes while also pioneering on several fronts especially around the bot movement and intelligence.

Have you seen the GTA VI trailer?
