At some point will ray tracing come to the xbox series S and X? Or will it only be officially available for PC gamers? It would be great to have ray tracing on xbox.
I don’t think ray tracing was doing to be a thing at all. Where did you hear this?
that would require 343 actually working on these games
Ray tracing isn’t officially supported on PC either. I don’t have a PC to check against, but if I’m wrong someone please lemme know.

You are correct. There is no ray tracing on the PC version or Xbox. I don’t think 343 even has any RT support planned for MCC right now, on any platform.
They did say they were not close minded about that though. So I hope Ray tracing Halo will come one day. Like Quake^^
As cool as ray-tracing is, I don’t think support for it on MCC may come anytime soon, as that would require TONS of work and resources to implement in a stable way. You’d have to consider the type of games MCC runs and their engines. Are the engines actually ready to support such a taxing feature?
There is currently no plans that I am aware of for Ray Tracing support on Xbox Series console or PC.
Ray Tracing isn’t just something that’s just added nor does Ray Tracing come in a singular form. There’s Ray Traced lighting, Ray Traced reflections and so many more types too.
Ray Tracing would essentially require 343i to relight every single level of Halo Reach, CE, 2, 3, ODST & 4. Considering that these games also run on older engines there’s the technical challenge of getting the engines to actually work with Ray Tracing in the first place and on a variety of different Console & PC hardware.
However much I’d love to see Ray Tracing in MCC I honestly believe it’s a tonne of work for a singular feature. Look how long it took for Crytek to add Ray Tracing correctly to the Crysis Trilogy Remaster.
The team working on MCC isn’t huge, by the time Ray Tracing came out on MCC would anyone even be playing it that much?
