Ever wondered how the first Uncharted installment would look on PC with Ray Tracing effects? This brand-new video comparison shows how impressive the game can look running in RPCS3.
Courtesy of YouTube channel Digital Dreams, this new video shows Naughty Dog’s first PS3 Uncharted installment, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, running in the RPCS3 PC PS3 emulator on Ultra-graphic settings with Pascal Glicher’s Reshade Ray Tracing modification.
While ReShade Ray Tracing effects cannot be compared to native Ray Tracing, it does show how the lighting in older titles can be improved.
Naughty Dog didn’t implement ambient occlusion until 2009’s Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and the use of Pascal Glicher’s Reshade Ray Tracing mod surely improves the lighting in the first Uncharted.
While the RPCS3 emulator
has made great progress the past year, Uncharted Drake’s Fortune, among others, still suffers from some performance issues and glitches.

The latest public version of RPCS3 can be downloaded via the
emulator’s official website.
