Portal RTX is a ray-traced remix of the puzzle classic
During today’s Nvidia GTC keynote, the company announced Portal RTX – an RTX-enhanced version of the 2007 puzzle classic developed by Valve.
Portal RTX includes updated graphics and supports ray tracing. This isn’t the first time Nvidia has made RTX upgrades for older games. The company previously made RTX versions of Quake II and Minecraft. This latest RTX Remix game is special, however, as Nvidia has confirmed that the Portal RTX creation tool called RTX Remix will be available to everyone for free. That means others are grabbing the tool and creating their own RTX-enhanced games.
Portal RTX was one of many announcements Nvidia made during its GTC keynote. Other announcements include the unveiling of the long-awaited RTX 40 series, consisting of the RTX 4090 and two RTX 4080 GPUs: one with 12GB of memory and one with 16GB.
