Metro Exodus arrives for Linux on April 14

Quoting: Liam DaweThe special enhanced edition has a game engine revamp, for more advanced ray tracing. The normal edition has RT but won't see all the new extras they add in.
Right, I guess we'll see what sort of RT we get in Linux.
I'm excited to try it out once the drivers mature. :)

I still don't understand if they are claiming that "Metro Exodus PC Enhanced Edition" and "Mac and Linux versions of Metro Exodus" are the same thing, since it seems that only the Enhanced Edition will feature RT.

The way they talked about this in their February 15 announcement [External Link] suggests they are two different things. This is PR-speak, if they don't explicitly say "Enhanced Edition", they do not mean Enhanced Edition.

So that tweet was rather vague. As it stands for AMD right now, the hardware is capable but the drivers aren't ready yet. Fingers crossed...

Since you no longer have to use Epics piece of crap Windows only application, Heroic is infinitely better.
