That is pretty cool.Mortal Kombat 1 patch from today has added RT reflections option:

Assassin’s Creed Shadows was set to feature ray traced global illumination, but it now expanded ray tracing to reflections and global illumination together.

This one is also interesting as it seem to support non-RT GPUs but that support is indicated only for 1080p/30 target with some undisclosed upscaling and framegen at play.Assassin’s Creed Shadows will now have upgraded ray tracing for global illumination and reflections. It was only global illumination before.

I wonder if the s/w implementation there will be so slow that it will essentially require RT h/w too.
It’s becoming really pointless to buy or play AAA games at release with the constant stream of updates months (sometimes years) later.
It's never been a great idea to be a first day buyer of a brand new AAA game.

Ninja Gaiden 2 Remastered features ray tracing using UE5, no idea what kind of ray tracing exactly ... reflections?

It's the usual h/w Lumen most probably so better reflections and GI.

Seems Assassin's Creed is one step closer to fully relying on hardware ray tracing in it's pipeline. The game will use a multi tier ray tracing system from the ground up that allows for maximum compatibility.
Selective ray tracing
This mode uses ray tracing only within the Hideout portion of the game. The reason behind this, is that the Hideout allows extensive player customization at a level never seen before on Assassin's Creed. Because of that, we cannot use traditional, pre-calculated, global illumination techniques, and therefore need to adopt a real-time approach with ray tracing. In all other gameplay situations, such as in the open world, ray tracing will not be used.
Standard ray tracing
This mode uses the hardware ray tracing capabilities of the GPU to compute real-time global illumination.
Extended ray tracing
This mode uses the hardware ray tracing capabilities of the GPU to compute both real-time global illumination and reflections. This is the most extensive usage of ray tracing.
Software ray tracing
For GPUs that doesn't support ray tracing, a proprietary software-based ray tracing approach will be used, developed specifically to ensure Assassin's Creed Shadows remains accessible to as many players as possible.

So apparently it somehow runs on a 1070 and 5700?

That’s pretty impressive if it all works.

I was reading the README for Nvidia's ray tracing denoisers when I stumbled upon a paragraph that could throw more fuel onto the fire of the "Frame Generation is fake frames" argument.
It's interesting to see Nvidia itself write that generated frames are somewhat "fake". This does bring up an important point that I haven't seen mentioned in discussion of generated frames versus "real" frames though: various temporal techniques including spatiotemporal denoising achieve better quality with higher base frame rates, but generated frames do nothing to improve their quality. Ultimately, it's another reason why games should still be targeting at least 60FPS as a base frame rate, in addition to concerns over latency.

If it works like Avatar and Outlaws, it will run slower and look worse on such hardware.

Spider-Man 2 is launching with ray traced reflections, ray-traced interiors, shadows, and ambient occlusion. Ray Reconstruction and DLSS4 are also supported.
Sony also detailed that you can increase the object quality in reflections and the distance covered in the reflections the same way as in Spider-Man Remastered and Miles Morales.

The update for RTX Mega Geometry in Alan Wake 2 is now live, on a 4090 the performance increased by 13%, VRAM utilization dropped as well.
