The free demo, now available on Steam, features two chapters with advanced ray tracing and DLSS 4, but requires high-end Nvidia GPUs for optimal performance.

  • The Half-Life 2 RTX demo, developed by Orbifold Studios using Nvidia's RTX Remix platform, includes the Ravenholm and Nova Prospekt chapters.
  • The remaster retains the original game's art direction while updating textures, objects, and characters with modern detail.
  • Advanced graphical features such as ray tracing, DLSS 4, RTX Neural Shaders, and volumetric lighting deliver a groundbreaking visual experience.
  • The demo requires high-end Nvidia RTX GPUs, with optimal performance seen on RTX 50-series cards, making it less accessible for older hardware.
  • No release date has been announced for the full version of the Half-Life 2 RTX mod, leaving fans eagerly awaiting further updates.
