Does Modern Warfare 3’s Campaign Have Ray-Tracing? Answered

Yay or nay?

Modern Warfare 3 offers a Campaign mode where players can watch the next story arc of this bloody war. Although the game looks amazing in trailers, some fans may wonder if it features a Ray Tracing setting.

Is There Ray Tracing in COD Modern Warfare 3’s Campaign?

Unfortunately, Modern Warfare 3’s Campaign mode does not feature any Ray Tracing setting. When I played the early access version of the Campaign mode, I explored all available settings in the Options menu. Sadly, I couldn’t find any mention of Ray Tracing in the Graphics section.

Although this may disappoint some players, it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise, considering that Modern Warfare 2’s Campaign also does not offer Ray Tracing. Of course, it is still possible that the developer will add this highly-demanded feature sometime in the future.

The most likely reason behind the lack of Ray Tracing mode is that the developer does not want to hinder the game’s performance. However, this argument does not hold much weight since you cannot play the Campaign mode in multiplayer. Unlike in co-op mode, losing a few frames to gain better graphics is not a bad exchange, especially when you want to immerse yourself in the story.

Although you cannot turn on the Ray Tracing mode in Campaign, you can still adjust various settings in the Graphics section. Here is the full list:

  • On-Demand Texture Streaming
  • World Motion Blur
  • Weapon Motion Blur
  • Film Grain
  • Depth of Field
  • FidelityFX Cas
  • FidelityFX Cas Strength
  • Field of View
  • First Person Camera Movement
  • Third Person Camera Movement
  • Inverted Flash Bang
  • Brightness
