Quake II RTX v1.8.0
Quake II RTX is a fully path-traced version of the classic 1997 first-person shooter, rebuilt to showcase realistic lighting, reflections, refractions, shadows, and global illumination. The free release includes the first three levels of the original Quake II campaign, where you battle through heavily fortified Strogg installations and work to disable their war machine. Players who own the original Quake II can use its game files to unlock the complete campaign, cooperative play, and competitive multiplayer with the RTX visual enhancements applied throughout.

Game Description
Shortly after landing on an alien surface, you learn that hundreds of your men have been reduced to just a few. Now you must fight your way through heavily fortified military installations, lower the city’s defenses and shut down the enemy’s war machine. Only then will the fate of humanity be known.
About Quake II RTX
Quake II RTX builds on the work of Christoph Schied and the team at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, who added ray tracing to Quake II to create Q2VKPT (in turn building upon the Q2PRO code base). NVIDIA has introduced new path-traced visual effects, has improved texturing, and has made dozens of other changes and improvements, resulting in an experience that rivals games created today, and pushes your RTX hardware to the limit.
Quake II RTX is fully ray-traced and includes the 3 levels from the original shareware distribution.
Purchase Quake II: Quad Damage to access all levels from the base game as well as multiplayer support.
