What is Ray Tracing?
Nvidia's Ray Tracing platform is known as Nvidia RTX. Simply put, it is a technique that makes video game light behave as it would in real life. It effectively traces the path that a ray of light takes in the physical world and simulates it accordingly.
What is DLSS?
DLSS stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling, and is a technology developed by Nvidia. It uses this deep learning technology to produce images that look like higher-resolution versions of original lower-resolution images.
What this means for Fortnite
The graphics in Fortnite are about to get a significant boost. For those with a powerful enough graphics card, the game's island is going to be as beautiful as it has ever been. Nvidia bringing RTX and DLSS capabilities to the game means better lighting, shadows, and real-time reflections.
Although Fortnite is the farthest game from having realistic in-game graphics, this is a huge step towards more realism within it. Just because it is a bit cartoonish at times does not mean it can't benefit from the realistic effects of lighting and shadows in-game.
As seen in the trailer, the reflections are a big selling point. Players will be able to see themselves in mirrors, water, and even in the reflective surfaces of cosmetic items.
All in all, Nvidia getting Fortnite on as a client is a big deal. More people than ever before will be experiencing their game-changing graphics technology.
