In this video, NVIDIA's Jacob Freeman shows off the demo. Jacob highlights most of the new Path Tracing features. The video also contains some fight scenes. In short, it's a must-watch for all HL2 fans.

Half-Life 2 RTX will also support DLSS 3 Frame Generation and DLSS 3.5 Ray Reconstruction. By using Frame Generation, owners of the RTX40 series will be able to improve game performance. Since it will use full Path Tracing, you will need it.


And no, there is no word yet on whether it will support FSR 3.0. However, owners of older RTX GPUs will be able to use the "DLSS 3 to FSR 3.0" mod. From what we've seen, this mod works fine in games that support Path Tracing.

Half-Life 2 RTX is being developed by four of Half-Life 2's leading mod teams, now known as Orbifold Studios. This remaster will also include new assets. These assets will try to get close to the originals, but also make the game look like modern AAA titles.

As far as we know, Orbifold Studios has rebuilt materials with Physically Based Rendering (PBR) capabilities. Not only that, but the team also added extra geometric details via Valve's Hammer editor. In Half-Life 2 RTX, average textures in the world have 8x more pixels, and objects like the suit have 20x more geometric detail than in the original game.

Unfortunately, there is still no expected release date. At this point, we have to assume we're looking at a release in 2025. And that's optimistic.
