Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 Steam Ray Tracing Feature Removed

According to recent reports from several players, Capcom has seemingly quietly removed the ray tracing feature in the Steam version of Resident Evil 7 and the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes. This is the opposite of Capcom’s recent statement of removing the games’ DirectX 11 non-ray tracing versions, as now the DirectX 12 ray-tracing versions have been removed instead, which may mean this was some sort of error. Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3 are available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. Each Game’s details via Capcom:Resident Evil 3Jill Valentine is one of the last remaining people in Raccoon City to witness the atrocities Umbrella performed.
