Radeon owners have to wait for ray tracing
Twitter asked whether the recently published, new system requirements for Cyberpunk 2077 (buy now € 58.19) also apply to the new AMD graphics cards. Because only Nvidia is listed in the table for ray tracing effects. Community manager Marcin Momot then stated that no ray tracing is planned for the new Radeon cards, at least for the release. However, the team would work with AMD to submit this feature as soon as possible.Recommended editorial content This is where you will find external content from [PLATFORM].

So if you've got hold of one of the few Radeon RX 6000 cards, you'll have to wait a little longer before you find out how well ray tracing works with the cards in Cyberpunk 2077. It is not clear when exactly the feature will be submitted via update. Ray tracing introduces improved lighting effects and realistically calculated reflections into the game. Cyberpunk 2077 naturally runs without these effects and a Radeon RX 6000 card can display the action RPG smoothly according to the system requirements.
The community is already asking why ray tracing doesn't work on the new Radeon cards, because Cyberpunk 2077 supports the feature via DirectX 12, which AMD does too. Is there an exclusive time agreement with Nvidia? We'll find out how well Cyberpunk 2077 works with and without ray tracing when it is released on December 10th.
