Ray tracing in HITMAN 3 on PC

Ray tracing the detailed environments of HITMAN 3 is quite demanding on the GPU. To get the best experience it’s important to select graphics quality settings that match your installed GPU. 

HITMAN 3 supports ray traced reflections and shadows.

Ray tracing can be enabled from the Graphics menu under Options in the main menu of HITMAN 3.  Here you’ll find separate toggles for enabling ray traced reflections and shadows.  When ray tracing is enabled, the Reflection Quality options appears and here you can control the reflection quality. Ray tracing must be enabled before you start a mission.

In general, for lower end hardware we recommend using low or medium Reflection Quality.  Lowering reflection quality can greatly improve performance, but results in reflections with fewer details and occasional popping of small objects.

Adaptive Supersampling in HITMAN 3 on PC

Patch 3.110 also adds support for Adaptive Supersampling, such as NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution 1.0.  It is highly recommended to enable DLSS or FSR when using ray tracing for a better and smoother experience.

Can't wait!!

DLSS is great news, I'll have to try ray traced reflections with it.

Sounds neat, now lower the bloody pricing for us Aussies.

Neither Ray Tracing or DLSS is available in the games' options for me.

Update is apparently not live till the 24th, so a couple of days, although you would think that that tiny little fact would be mentioned in the sticky....

Are you playing 3.110 yet?

No? Hence the use of future tense "will bring these features" when it releases

Who announces a patch nebulously, but doesn't mention the patch isn't available? News sites are all talking about the patch in the present tense

Appreciate the unnecessary snark though.

This post was just a follow up to that and there was a simultaneous announcement for it right here on the forums with the date posted the same date as this thread you're in:

It's also linked in game, but let's pretend no one looks there.

I looked here, at the pinned announcement for the patch. The one that didn't include the release date. I did this after reading the news which announced the patch was out.

No need to pretend. I didn't even own the game until a few days ago, as I have been waiting to obtain it for near dirt cheap in retaliation for the exclusivity contract with Epic Games.

At what timezone will the patch land?

Do something useful and tell me the time when it's out Kunovega.
