PC version Wolfenstein: Youngblood will be released on July 25 without RTX support
Bethesda releases the PC version of Wolfenstein: Youngblood on Thursday, one day earlier than planned. However, it will be lacking RTX support with its initial release. Something NVIDIA advertised massively with. Raytracing is to be added later with a patch.
You can expect the game for PC this Thursday Bethesda mentions on Twitter. Wolfenstein makes use of the Vulkan API and would be the first game with that API to get RTX support.
In an earlier interview Jerk Gustafsson, the producer of the game, said that raytracing would not be available when the game comes out. The functionality is added by developers from Nvidia themselves and they are still working hard on that.
It has not been mentioned when the RTX patch for the game will be released. Nvidia is to bundle the game with its RTX cards this the summer. In Wolfenstein: Youngblood, a co-op function is central, but it is also possible to play alone. The game is set in Paris in 1980, twenty years after the events in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. Jess and Soph, the twin daughters of BJ Blazkowicz and Anya play the lead roles. The game comes out for Windows, the PlayStation 4, the Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch.

love wolfenstein games, but hesitant about the new way its going, ill buy it either way as i find it the most optimised fun fps iv played alongside doom.
lacking RTX for now is a shame as id have probably completed it by the time that patch comes out, iv still to use the rtx features of my 2080ti, lol.
Or... you could just wait until it gets support. Play the game a bit later

like already they laugh in internet they are scared of that game, there is no marketing for it, nobody even remembered that crap comes out. maybe next patch instead of rtx will remove those two captain feminazi antifa abominations and politics of game. its easy to do just remove bink movies and anti white comments

You should write a poem about it.
If this isn't sarcasm it should be. Nvidia sold cards based on a tech that's in like 4 games at this point. These shouldn't be getting delayed a year out from the cards launch.. it's embarrassing.

It was a sarcasm, nice catch. Tomb Raider update was so late that many didnt even think it will come or finished the game already.
Out of those 4 games i would argue only Metro implementation is worthy having an rtx card. It is sad indeed.

Wolfenstein without B.J. is an abomination.
That poetic moment in the reboot when he is waking on the hospital bed and cutting the throat of that soldier mumbling: "Nazi Scum!" - can those two teen girls equal that???
The guy survived a beheading for god's sake but two teen girls finally got the best of him...sad

If someone doesn't come up with an easier way to implement ray tracing this RTX thing won't stick if devs have to work this hard to support it.

Spare me the compliments on my mad Photoshop skills
(that's Myspace Tom, for anyone who couldn't tell)
I'm sure it isn't that hard but it takes a lot of effort to rework a game engine. The Wolfenstein games look pretty good so it's not like they have a huge incentive to support a somewhat niche feature.

I'll reserve judgement. I was expecting a crap game with the 2 female sister villains in FC New Dawn but was pleasantly surprised with a fun game. Sure BJ is a Wolfenstein mainstay... but its not necessary to look at this as a Wolfenstein game to enjoy it.. if its a well designed game.

This is true , especially since I had the impression that if you design a game with ray tracing in mind, it looks odd without it activated and vice versa. Since the true power of ray tracing shines not only with switching it on but with seperately placed light sources of different qualities, and same goes for textures (reflecting or not). Maybe the issue is that currently not every game and hardware can run with ray tracing. Feels like they need to design lighting two times to get the best out of ray tracing for lighting as it is now.
Well if you can't wait, you probably shouldn't count on ray tracing at all, or for wait for another game, like you said correctly.
