I haven't seen anything on it, but tbh haven't paid attention to anything because of Cyberpunk. Even if they did, it doesn't really matter. Their true colors were shown through their email to this fellow and it paints the picture I was saying 2 years ago. They were trying to say "it's a thing" when in all actuality they are doing nothing more than to force it to be a thing so they could get a shit ton more cash off their cards through mere marketing. It's been 2 years and there are 21 games that support it. Only 7 of those make any real difference, but nowhere near enough to justify the performance cost. It also shows very clearly that they want influencers to do nothing but push their agenda, no matter how hard they back pedal on this. Jay's point will indefinitely stand on games only having RTX right now because Nvidia paid them to add it.
Even then, it's still not really enough to justify the performance hit. Honestly, the photorealistic streamed assets UE5 showcased with the PS5 IMO is going to be a much bigger game changer than raytracing currently. People will concentrate on this way more because it's a much noticeable difference without such a performance penalty and I can bet money now devs will jump on this immediately without a paid shove.
Oh yeah I really want to see that in action. My guess is that it won't be as impressive once they try and incorporate it into an actual game that has a bunch of other things going on such as game logic, AI etc. Probably still going to be great, but a step down from what they show in the tech demo. Basically the same as all tech demo's... they end up being closer to reality after 5 to 10 years.
