Gaijin Entertainment confirmed its Dagor Engine could technically support path tracing global illumination on Sony's PlayStation 5 Pro. Lead Programmer László Perneky said performance remains the primary concern, and the studio plans to release ray tracing support for consoles before evaluating whether hardware resources allow for the advanced lighting technology.
No game has implemented path tracing on the PS5 Pro since its launch. War Thunder represents the console's best opportunity because it uses path-traced global illumination rather than complete path tracing, but full support likely requires waiting for the PlayStation 6.
Chief Executive Anton Yudintsev stated that Gaijin wants to bring War Thunder and Enlisted to the Nintendo Switch 2 but continues waiting for development hardware. The company typically supports new platforms early in their lifecycles.
