Half-Life 2 RTX demo launches on March 18, 2025
Nvidia will release a demo for the Half-Life 2 RTX mod on March 18, allowing players to experience upgraded levels, specifically Ravenholm and Nova Prospekt. The full mod does not yet have a release date. The demo showcases enhanced graphics, including improved weapons and environments. However, some users may find the changes make the game appear foggier rather than better. To run the demo effectively, Nvidia recommends a GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics card. The original Half-Life 2 received an update last November, which included bug fixes and integrated Episodes One and Two.
