    The Witcher 3 Next-Gen with RTGI and RTAO

    CD Projekt RED has detailed the Ray Tracing effects for PC. The game will have RTGI and RTAO.

    Furthermore, CDPR has added some new Ultra+ settings that will push/stress a lot of GPUs, and has improved the game’s SSR.
    There will be support for both NVIDIA DLSS 2 and AMD FSR 2.0.

    The Witcher 3 Next-Gen Update will become available on December 14th.

    A very nice all around care package. I fancy that they went for GI and AO. I hope it looks better than the one screenshot I saw compared to W3 right now, being more or less the same.

    2.4.13 looks so good in spiderman mm i think it beats even 2.4.6. Updated the remaster version to latest one as well.

    Really depends how well done the Witcher 3's GI was done. Because if GI it's done well it can look well great without RT. This could end up like Cyberpunk 2077, where are there areas or situations where one or the other looks better.

    Need for Speed install path includes upscaling techniques DLSS, FSR2, and XeSS.
    Great to see developers using Nvidia's open source StreamLine project for managing upscaling options during development and in-game.

    DLSS 2.4.12 "v2" seems to work well too:

    FSR 2 Performance:

    And it's far better than 2.2.6 in other regards, would have expected Alex to know.

    Played some RTAO in BF2042 and didn't see much of an difference (i mean in play).
    But the good side is perf. impact is very small.

    RTAO looks good in Deathloop, much better than HBAO+ or AMD CACAO

    Deathloop Yes, im using Ultra RT there.
    But when Playing Multi in BF2042 is hard to notice the diff.
    But when Im into Screenshot madness, then Yes RT is a must.

    I'm definitely not using any setting that might lower FPS in a competitive game LOL, getting 200+ FPS during intense fights in PUBG is a must :D

    The Witcher 3 Next-Gen

    As NVIDIA stated:

    “On December 14th, all The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt PC players will receive a free update that adds various gameplay changes, new quest content, and new graphics features that take full advantage of the latest PCs and laptops.

    Here’s what to expect:

    • RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) adds more immersive and realistic outdoor ray-traced lighting
    • Ray-traced ambient occlusion improves shading around objects occluding light
    • Ray-traced shadows improve the fidelity, clarity and visibility of shadows
    • Ray-traced reflections increase the accuracy and quality of reflections on bodies of water and other suitably reflective surfaces
    On top of that, Ultra+ settings increase draw distances, foliage density, background character detail, asset quality, and more. Texture resolutions are increased and environments gain new geometric detail.”

    NVIDIA has also revealed that the Next-Gen Update will support DLSS 3.
    This is great news for all RTX40 series owners.
