Spider-Man 2 Will Include Ray Tracing In Quality And Performance Mode
With the release of Spider-Man 2 just over a month away, developer Insomniac Games has started going all out to try and get us all excited for launch day. We're seeing developers reveal new features and additions that will build upon the foundation that the previous two games laid down, and Spider-Man 2 is even promising to be the best-looking game in the series so far thanks to the fact the game will be the first one exclusive to the PS5.
Insomniac has been using Spider-Man 2's new PS5 exclusivity to the fullest, and even stated in a recent interview with IGN that this game will be the "culmination of everything [Insomniac has] learned" about developing for the PS5. For example, it was revealed in this interview that Spider-Man 2 players won't have to choose between Quality and Performance modes if they want ray tracing, as both will have the feature built in from the start.

"There's no mode of this game that has the ray tracing turned off, no need for it. We've really figured out how to deliver what we feel like is the right Spider-Man visuals and we want to make sure every player is seeing that."
