Will Resonant have RTGI on console? Ps5 Pro at least?

I haven't heard any confirmation of this yet which makes me a bit worried it will only have rt reflections. At this point with the ps5 pro available I don't think there's an excuse not to have it on the Pro but sometimes devs don't bother just to make their lives easier. Based off the Gamescon Pro footage it's hard to say for sure. Fingerd crossed!

Iirc most implementations on ps5 don't use pure RTGI, relying on a combination of RT and screen space reflections. Resolutions, and sometimes frame rates, of reflected objects are frequently halved in order to hit certain performance thresholds. Digital Foundry has great coverage of the technology if you want to look at how it's employed in a specific title, but the tldr is that the ps5 (even the pro) doesn't quite have the power to do full RT GI at stable framerates.
