⤢ ВІДКРИТИBack Stage is a demonstration of our work, addressing the question: 'How can we leverage ray tracing in next-generation games?' GeForce RTX graphics cards boast power beyond our imagination, and thanks to NVIDIA's technology, even real-time path tracing has become a reality. Together with Luminous Engine and RTX, we've taken another step towards creating the beautiful and realistic game we aspire to build.
The Luminous Engine was previously used in Final Fantasy XV, where Square Enix partnered with NVIDIA to add effects like VXAO, HairWorks, ShadowLibs, and Turf Effects.
