Capcom will bring Ray Tracing back to Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 on PC

This month, a mysterious update for Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 on Steam removed ray-tracing from both games. Fans were quick to notice this, flagging the issue up online. Now, Capcom has officially addressed this, confirming that this was an error and a fix is on the way. 

In a tweet, Capcom addressed questions about missing ray-tracing features. We don't know how or why RT was disabled, but Capcom says that the problem will be “addressed in a future update”.

To all Resident Evil 2 / Resident Evil 3 users on Steam ⚠️

Both Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 3 Remake launched with ray-tracing features in place. Currently following a recent update, RT options no longer appear in the graphics menu and the 3D Audio option in the game has also been removed.

While these features are currently missing in action, both games remain fully playable and no other immediate issues have been widely reported.

KitGuru Says: While we're still confused as to how this happened, it would seem that ray tracing will return to RE2 and RE3 soon enough.
