ray tracing

Engadget has published an explainer on ray tracing in gaming, breaking down what the lighting technology actually does and whether the visual improvement justifies its performance cost. The piece walks through how ray tracing simulates realistic light behaviour in games and weighs whether the difference is noticeable enough to matter for everyday players.

NVIDIA is drawing attention with a Gears of War-related item, suggesting the game franchise is being promoted in connection with NVIDIA graphics technology. Details about what the partnership involves, such as a remaster, DLC, or graphics enhancements like ray tracing and DLSS, are not confirmed. Fans of the series and the gaming community are watching for official announcements.
