Nvidia is getting ready to launch a tool called RTX Remix, which will allow older games like The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind to support ray tracing and be given additional graphical upgrades. With other games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Portal being updated to implement DLSS 3, the newest iteration of team green's Deep Learning Super Sampling upscaling algorithm, things like ray tracing and AI-powered visual upgrades are becoming more and more common, and there's no reason why older titles can't get in on the act.
A few months ago, Morrowind celebrated turning 20 years old, and while it's still beloved among many fans of the Elder Scrolls series or western RPGs in general, there's no denying that it has aged over the past two decades. Given this, it's understandable that many seek out ways to give the classic game a more modern face lift, such as through the Morrowind Rebirth mod. And while graphics aren't everything when it comes to gaming, there's no harm in bringing a retro title into the current generation.

A number of images uploaded to Twitter by user Nibel show that Morrowind can indeed look a little more up-to-date thanks to the upcoming RTX Remix mod tool. The screenshots from the game show side-by-side comparisons, demonstrating how things look now and how they will look with ray tracing and texture upscaling. The difference is quite significant, with the updated version looking a lot more detailed with pretty fantastic visuals and major improvements to the lighting. Nvidia says the Remix tool will be coming out shortly, but there's no finalized release date for it at the time of writing.
