Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition out next week for PC - Raytracing GPU is Mandatory

Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition out next week for PC - Raytracing GPU is Mandatory

Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition is going to be released next week on the 6th, the game will bring new adds additional ray-traced effects and NVIDIA DLSS 2.0. The game will be free for all existing Metro Exodus owners.

The Enhanced Edition will be available to all existing owners on Steam, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, and GOG and will be a new release of the game, not an upgrade to your existing install. That also entails the game will have updated PC requirements, obviously for all bells and whistles; a ray tracing-capable GPU, and believe it or not, that is a mandatory requirement as you won’t be able to turn off ray tracing whatsoever.

Your older save games however will be imported over to the new update. The new update thus is all about advanced ray tracing features, including advanced ray-traced reflections, ray-traced emissive lighting, updated ray-traced global illumination, and DLSS 2.0 support. The full game, with all DLC, requires around 80GB of free space, or 72GB for the base game only. The game is due for release next week, May the 6th.

Wish I could go back couple of month and forget I ever played it :D

I'm glad I only played one hour :) I'll definitely restart from the beginning.

It's the same game, not a new one, just an RT jacket. So if you do not have an RT-compatible graphics card, .. play metro Exodus.


Either way raytracing gpu is mandatory meaning enchanced edition is not available to everyone but only few. That can be a good or a bad thing.

Anyway extreme system req. are missing with 3090 in spec.

Prolly will look good but its not like im gonna miss much not having a RT capable GPU.


I just want proper RT racing games.
That's where I truly beleive RT will shine. And even a heavily modded GTA5.
