Middle-earth Shadow of War, the second entry in the series developed by Monolith Productions, is among the many games that haven’t received official ray tracing support, but that would benefit quite a bit from it, judging from a new video shared online.
German modder Digital Dreams shared a new 8K resolution video a few hours ago showcasing the game running with the Beyond All Limits ray tracing ReShade preset. While it doesn’t make a huge difference in daylight sequences, the preset makes the game look great during night sequences, improving the atmosphere considerably.
Middle-earth Shadow of War built upon the features introduced by its predecessor, such as the Nemesis system, in some very interesting ways, but the game was damaged at launch by some questionable design choices which forced players to massively grind, or spend real money with microtransactions, to unlock the final ending. This issue has since been fixed with the Definitive Edition. You can learn more about the game by checking out Kai’s review.
Middle-earth Shadow of War is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One worldwide.
In Middle-earth Shadow of War, nothing will be forgotten.
