Dead Space Remake is shaping up to be one of the best-looking games to date, bringing out all sorts of beauty and disgust in its horror setting. Everything from the individual textures to the overall lighting has received a facelift, making the game nearly indistinguishable from the original in every way. With it being a modern game, you may be wondering if a certain lighting setting is available in the new game. Here’s whether there is ray-tracing in Dead Space Remake.
Does Dead Space Remake Have Ray-Tracing?
The answer should come as no surprise given this is a AAA video game released in the year 2023, but yes, Dead Space Remake does feature ray-tracing. This offers up a massive improvement to the game’s lighting, offering far more realistic shadows for those who appreciate the finer details (and have enough money for a ray-tracing capable GPU). It also provides a hefty performance hit, but perhaps that’s worth it for some of you.
Alongside ray-tracing, Dead Space Remake also features the iconic DLSS that Nvidia’s been touting for some time now. There’s a large technical explanation for what it is, but to keep it in laymen’s terms, DLSS uses AI to upscale a lower-resolution image to look like a higher resolution. Provided you’re playing on one of the quality settings, the difference in quality tends to be unnoticeable. Meanwhile, your performance sees a hefty increase. Some think ray-tracing is a bigger innovation, but if you ask us, this is the bigger revelation.
