Nvidia Lightspeed Studios to add ray tracing to classic PC games

After Nvidia surprised gamers with the addition of ray tracing to the 1997 classic PC title Quake II, its Lightspeed Studios is ready to add real-time ray tracing features to more classic PC games.

According to DSOGaming.com, Nvidia, as seen on job post on myworkdayjobs.com, is looking for a producer for Lightspeed Studios for its new remastering program.

“We’re cherry-picking some of the greatest titles from the past decades and bringing them into the ray tracing age, giving them state-of-the-art visuals while keeping the gameplay that made them great,” says the post.

So far, the game the studio plans to work on is a secret, and it’s a title “that you know and love but we can’t talk about here!” For now, Nvidia is building a team to take on the challenge.

A few games are already in the minds of gamers, such as Thief, Unreal, Half-Life and Deus Ex. Which one would you like to see next?
