22 most beautiful games with ray tracing share one thing: an RT graphics card finally shows what it can really do, because lighting, reflections, and shadows are calculated with physical accuracy instead of being faked through rasterization. We've rounded up 22 of the best — from titles where RT can't be switched off at all, to flagships with full path tracing, to classics that ray tracing transformed beyond recognition.

Handheld PCs like Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally are rapidly gaining popularity, but in 2026 more and more games refuse to run well on them without serious graphical compromises. For example, the recent The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered and Doom: The Dark Ages leave a lot to be desired even on the powerful Asus ROG Ally X, let alone the weaker Steam Deck or the standard ROG Ally.

Exactly five years have passed since the release of Cyberpunk 2077. Many still remember the overwhelming hype that surrounded its launch, followed by the turning point when excitement gave way to disappointment and frustration over the game’s issues.

Still, for the anniversary, let’s examine just how much it has changed over five years and whether CDPR ultimately delivered the dream RPG fans had been promised long before release.
