You might be wondering if Wo Long Fallen Dynasty has ray tracing, and we can confirm that, for now, it does not.

This will come as disappointing news to many who hoped to explore the world of 1st Century China with the photo-realistic light and shadow effect that ray tracing creates. However, as an RPG game that focuses its gameplay on fluid combat, it may not be well suited to ray tracing anyway.

This is because ray tracing can be incredibly demanding on any graphics card. Even when playing on the best GPUs for ray tracing you will still see frame rates drop when it is turned on.

It’s very possible that even if ray tracing was a feature of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty many gamers would have left it turned off to prioritise the high frame rates that allow for smooth combat. That said it would have been nice to have the option.

However, the game is still beautiful and there is a tonne of graphics settings which allow you to tailor the look of the game to your preferences.
