I remember something a few months back from Epic saying they were working very closely with Apple for ray tracing support and other things.On topic. Apples continued commitment into gaming:
At its 'Wonderlust' iPhone event, it was revealed that the iPhone 15 Pro line would include an A17 Pro chip that's capable of running ray-tracing natively on the hardware. This is an important distinction as Apple pointed out the huge difference between software and hardware-led ray tracing. This will essentially allow new iPhone 15 Pro models to run reflections and lighting in much higher fidelity with much more impressive textures.
This more or less gurantees hardware RT in M3 and beyond. Which also was likely originally in M2 before issues with TSMC delayed 3nm.
