The catalog of games that have adopted ray tracing technology has grown over time. The RayTracing technology implemented by NVIDIA for the first time is gaining more followers and more studies are joining. NVIDIA just announced a dozen new games that will support ray tracing technology, with a bit of a hint, since three are old acquaintances.
Currently only the RTX 2000 and recent RTX 3000 graphics support RayTracing technology. Within this technology there are different options, such as reflections, refractions and reflections, shadows, ambient occlusion and ambient lighting. None of the games to date have implemented all of these technologies, although rumors suggest that Cyberpunk 2077 would be the first.
