Cyberpunk 2077 Ray Tracing PC system requirements revealed

With Cyberpunk 2077's new release date of 10th December not too far off, PC gamers don't have a lot of time to smash their Piggy Banks open, if they want to experience Ray Tracing in the highly-anticipated RPG. While CD Projekt RED has previously revealed the minimum and recommended PC system requirements for Cyberpunk 2077, they have now revealed the Ray Tracing specs needed, including what you need to run the game in 4K with Ray Tracing enabled.

On Twitter, The Global Communication Lead for Cyberpunk 2077 and CD Projekt RED, Marcin Momot, revealed the game's Ray Tracing PC system requirements.

While this might be a letdown for some PC gamers, Cyberpunk 2077 looks spectacular even without Ray Tracing. For those with an RTX 2060 and up, however, the game will look even better.
