It appears that Quake 2 RTX will not be the only remaster for which NVIDIA will be adding real-time ray tracing effects. According to a job listing, the green team has created a studio that will specialize on adding Ray Tracing effects to remasters of even more classic PC games. NVIDIA is kicking off an exciting new game 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. The NVIDIA Lightspeed Studios team is picking up the challenge starting with a title that you know and love but we can’t talk about here! We’re building a team of talented, dedicated game developers who are ready to get going quickly. We are looking for an experienced Producer to join the NVIDIA Studios team. What you’ll be doing: Lead the production on an RTX remaster project, including scope, schedule, resourcing and risk management
