We were quite disappointed to learn that the Godfall ray tracing effects, specifically pertaining to ray traced shadows, weren't available at the game's launch. Developed in partnership with AMD with Microsoft's DirectX12 Ultimate/DirectX Ray Tracing, they would have been a first look at how the AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series graphics cards handle ray tracing.
That day has now arrived, as the developers have just released a new update that specifically enables Godfall ray tracing on PC. However, it only does so on AMD GPUs, so owners of an NVIDIA RTX GPU will have to wait for a future update to try and play Godfall with ray tracing enabled.
 
This quick update, 2.0.95 is just for PC and enables the ability for players to play Godfall with ray tracing on while using applicable AMD GPUs. Note: players will need to have the latest AMD GPU drivers to enable this. Ray tracing using NVIDIA GPUs will come with a future update. Check your version number on the bottom left of the Title Screen or in the Network tab in the Settings to make sure that you have the most recent update for your platform.
 
A very well deserved update but NVIDIA ray tracing will come later.

    On a semi related note , I don't think ray tracing is going to save this game. It's getting fairly trashed in reviews.  Barely eeking out a failing grade average of around 63 % reviewer ratings...

    Shocker. Last time I knew of AMD being higher than nVidia was its temperatures... XD
