PROJECT OVERVIEW
Portal 2 with RTX is our ambitious project to bring NVIDIA's RTX ray tracing technology to Valve's beloved Portal 2 game. This mod enhances the visual fidelity while maintaining the iconic art style and atmosphere that made the original game a masterpiece.
Using modern graphics techniques, we're reimagining the sterile laboratories, industrial chambers, and ancient testing facilities of Aperture Science with physically accurate lighting, reflections, and shadows.
