4A Games has confirmed that its next video game, Metro Exodus, will have support for Nvidia RTX technology, which offers real-time raytracing, to offer a great improvement in the graphics section.

Metro Exodus will have raytracing

Metro Exodus will be the first game to reach the market with support for Nvidia RTX, a new technology that, for now, is only compatible with graphics cards based on the Volta architecture, which greatly limits the number of users who will be able to benefit her.

For now the only graphic card based on Volta that we can buy is the Titan V, which has a price of 3, 000 euros, so very few users can afford it. Hopefully, Nvidia will announce this year a new generation of graphics cards, with support for RTX technology, surely based on the rumored Ampere architecture, which would come to succeed Volta.

In principle, all Directx 12 graphics cards are compatible with raytracing technology, the difference is that only Volta is capable of running it in real time in video games, this is because of the Tensor Core. In this way, Volta relies on its artificial intelligence capabilities to offer real-time raytracing in video games.

From AMD, it is known that its Navi architecture will be focused on artificial intelligence, so it could include something similar to Volta's Tensor Core. The arrival of Navi is not expected until 2019 at least.
