New patch brings Ray Tracing back to Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 Remakes

Following on from the unplanned removal of ray tracing in Capcom's Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes on Steam, the publisher promised to restore RT features in a future update. It turns out, that update didn't take long, as it is now rolling out. 

If you have the games installed, you'll see an update for them the next time you open up Steam. Capcom pushed the patch this morning, swiftly addressing the issue of missing ray-tracing features in the game.

The update will restore the ray-tracing options in the graphics menu on the DX12 versions of the game on PC. The option for 3D Audio should also be restored in the sound settings menu.

We're still unsure exactly what went wrong here, but still happy to see things quickly resolved.
