Dying Light 2 requires NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 to play the game with ray tracing enabled

Today, Techland released the official Dying Light 2 PC specifications. While the system requirements without ray tracing appear to be reasonable, the same cannot be said for the ray-traced specifications.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 is required to play Dying Light 2 at 1080p@30 with ray tracing enabled, and the RTX 3080 only increases the frame rate to sixty frames per second while maintaining FullHD resolution.

Minimum System Requirements (Ray Tracing Off, 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second):

• CPU: Intel® Core™ i3-9100 or AMD Ryzen™ 3 2300X
• RAM: 8GB
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti or AMD Radeon™ RX 560 (4GB VRAM)
• OS: Windows 7
• Available storage space: 60GB HDD

Recommended System Specifications (Ray Tracing Off, 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second):

• CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen™ 5 3600X
• RAM: 16GB
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 2060 6GB or AMD Radeon™ RX Vega 56 8GB

Ray Tracing On Minimum System Requirements (for 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second):

• CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen™ 5 3600X
• RAM: 16GB
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 2070 8GB
• OS: Windows 10
• Available storage space: 60GB SSD

Ray Tracing On Recommended System Requirements (for 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second):

• CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen™ 7 3700X
• RAM: 16GB
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 3080 10GB
• OS: Windows 10

Perhaps these suggestions overlook NVIDIA DLSS, which should make GeForce RTX hardware’s job easier in Dying Light 2 PC, potentially allowing for 1440p or even 2160p gaming.

Ray-traced Global Illumination brings incredible bounced lighting to every area of the world, ray-traced shadows with pixel-perfect detail update accordingly, and ray-traced reflections add dynamic detail to suitably-reflective surfaces throughout The City.

Ray tracing should also be included in the version for next-generation consoles, according to our previous interview with Techland. In that mode, we’ll have to see what tradeoffs the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X have to make.

Dying Light 2 launches February 4th, 2022 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and Nintendo Switch via the cloud.
