The long-awaited Ray Tracing Update for Dying Light: The Beast is now available. We're comparing max. Ray Tracing details vs. max. details without Ray Tracing. As always, we're using a very GPU-heavy testing sequence. Note how the frame rate is halved by RT. You are welcome to reproduce the scene on your system using our settings!

Video captured via OBS NVENC AV1 on an Nvidia Geforce RTX 5090 Founders Edition with manual over clocking (MSI Afterburner V/F Curve). For more videos, please check out our channel.
