The latest AMD Radeon Software Adrenalin driver has introduced support for ray-tracing on Vulkan based titles. Keep in mind that games that use NVIDIA’s Vulkan extension for implementing ray-tracing won’t be supporting, instead, the newly launched VRTEs will be supported.
The driver version 20.11.3 also supports optimizations for Immortals: Fenyx Rising, an open-world title from Ubisoft. Other than that, you get your regular list of fixes for various titles, most notably Crysis: Remastered, COD Block Ops: Cold War, and AMD partnered ray-traced title, WOW: Shadowlands. The changelog is as follows:
- Lower than expected performance may be experienced on Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics products in Watchdogs:® Legion and Dirt™ 5.
