Resident Evil 2 and 3 have quietly had their ray tracing options removed

It's not like most of us have a card that can even do ray tracing, but still, what gives?

, Capcom has moved ray tracing graphics options from Resident Evils 2 and 3. The next-gen lighting features were added to these games, as well as Resident Evil 7, in aI loaded into RE2 myself and, sure enough, no ray tracing. AMD FSR is still there, and running the game in its older DirectX 11 configuration is an opt-in choice via a Steam beta branch.

I own a sub-four figure graphics card, so I'm a ray tracing hater⁠—I've never found it worth the performance hit. Still, this change is perplexing and certainly a source of some good old fashioned consumer rage:"You gave me ray tracing! No takesies backsies!" I've reached out to Capcom and will update this story if we receive a response, but my gut tells me that this is a temporary change, possibly in error, and that traced rays will soon return to Racoon City.
