I wouldn't count on ray tracing working with AMD yet, but radv is getting there.

There is a chance performance of the new game would be actually better if it will go through vkd3d-proton.

Quoting: EhvisMy guess is that they either took the whole CP2077 engine or parts of it to do this. Either way, since I don't see them doing Vulkan for their last red engine usage, dx12 is very likely.
Didn't they port TW3 to the Switch? So may be they already had a Vulkan path in the engine for that. So it's a possibility they used that here as well. But I guess we'll see.

Btw, if it's using ray tracing, does it mean they refactored REDengine to use DX12 or even Vulkan? DX11 doesn't support it if I understand correctly.

I'm curious if existing mods will get updated to support it and what kind of community mods they incorporated into the new version.

Nintendo is so infamous for being a copyright bully, that even if it's a legitimate claim in this case, they'll be ridiculed for it. Their reputation precedes them.
