Aside from this, the game will support Nvidia’s RTX technology.

At yesterday’s Gamescom, Nvidia held a presentation in which they revealed their brand new GeForce RTX graphics card series. Battlefield V was also showcased at the event and it was revealed that it will support Nvidia’s RTX technology. RTX is Nvidia’s in-house version of ray tracing, which is a graphical procedure that makes it possible to realistically lit environments and simulates reflections, very computational-heavy, however, it can provide a similar jump in visual fidelity as physically based rendering – a technique that developers started to implement to their games in this console generation.

Here’s what we’ve learned about the PC version thanks to the official statement:

Real-Time Ray Tracing

Previously used to pre-render lifelike worlds in movies, ray tracing with the Nvidia RTX platform brings real-time, cinematic-quality rendering to video games. In Battlefield V, Nvidia RTX allows DICE to imitate the way light is reflected in the real world enhancing the fidelity of reflective surfaces in every level, map and locale in the game. This will ensure Battlefield V feels more lifelike and dynamic, leading to a more immersive experience that makes players feel like the battle is unfolding in a full 360-degrees around them. The use of real-time ray tracing in Battlefield V is made possible by Nvidia’s new GeForce RTX 20 series GPUs.

Nvidia Highlights

Nvidia Highlights automatically captures a gamer’s greatest gaming achievements in video. Integrated directly with the game, it knows precisely when that magic moment will happen and automatically records it using Nvidia ShadowPlay technology, making it easier to capture those Only in Battlefield moments.

Nvidia Ansel

Nvidia Ansel, available in the single-player War Stories in Battlefield V, is a revolutionary way to capture in-game photography. Users can compose shots from any position, adjust with post-process filters, capture HDR images in high-fidelity formats, and share their screenshots with the world.

Aside from these, at the Gamescom event, it was also revealed that the beta of Battlefield V will start on September 6 (September 4 for people who have early access to the game).

“The Open Beta will showcase the soon-to-be-iconic Rotterdam map on Conquest mode as well as the Arctic Fjord map on both Conquest and Grand Operations. Revealed just last week, the Rotterdam map will immerse players in a battle fought throughout the streets of Holland where the game’s dynamic physicality and destruction will be on full display. New to the Battlefield franchise, Grand Operations is a multiplayer experience across multiple maps and modes that takes players through a powerful narrative journey inspired by historical events.”

Battlefield V will launch on October 19 on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
