Kevin Todisco commented on the Diablo IV updates in a recent statement, saying:

“The launch of Diablo IV was just the beginning for us. We are regularly iterating based on player feedback and exploring how we can enhance the visuals and dark atmosphere of the game. The addition of ray-traced effects is our next step in making the brutal world of Sanctuary feel more immersive than ever. Effects like lightning strikes are now reflected in pools of blood and water, dank cellars and dungeons are more foreboding with realistic soft shadows, and the open world and towns are more grounded with additional realistic shadows and reflections. We are very excited for our community to experience this new technology.” – Michael Bukowski, Diablo IV Technical Director

“It was great working closely with NVIDIA to bring raytracing to Diablo IV. The experience they have with ray tracing technologies was instrumental in helping us take our ray tracing implementation to production quality, and libraries they offer like RTXMU gave us a valuable boost as we were developing.” – Kevin Todisco, Diablo IV Principal Software Engineer
