Elden Ring gets update with ray tracing support on PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC

March 23, 2023

This Thursday (23), Bandai Namco started distributing the update 1.09 for Elden Ring, requiring the server to be taken offline for three hours. Now, it is already active and players can already return to the game as soon as the update is carried out.

While it doesn’t have any new content, it does bring a number of bug fixes and other balance issues. However, the big star of the update is support for Ray Tracing on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and PC.

Fans of Elden Ring were already looking forward to the new expansion Shadow of the Erdtree, which was announced recently, but Bandai Namco has brought another surprise for those who want high-end visuals.

The latest title update brings the long-awaited Ray Tracing, which promises to make the Midlands even more beautiful, bringing better lighting effects and elevating the graphical experience for players.

The #ELDENRING servers will undergo maintenance today, March 23, 2022 to deploy patch 1.09.
This update contains balance adjustments and bug fixes.

Maintenance will begin at 00:00 PDT | 08:00 CET | 16:00 JST and last 3 hours on all platforms.

Thank you for your patience.
