DLSS and Ray Tracing are coming to DOOM Eternal this month

id Software and Nvidia have confirmed that Ray Tracing and DLSS are coming to DOOM Eternal, taking the game’s image quality to the next level using the latest Vulkan API ray tracing extensions. 

Ray Tracing is coming to DOOM Eternal in the form of ray-traced reflections, a feature that will look great in areas with lots of metallic objects, puddles, glass and polished surfaces. With DLSS, Nvidia RTX users should be able to play DOOM Eternal with ray tracing and boosted performance. 

DOOM Eternal’s RTX update will be releasing this month, with Nvidia confirming that the update will be “coming this June”. We hope to have a look at DOOM Eternal’s ray tracing update when it becomes available on PC. 

Below is a comment on DOOM Eternal’s RTX patch from id Software’s Studio Director, Marty Stratton.
