More info indicating everyone is going to move to HW Ray Tracing support.
Though it looks like only Data Center parts may have it initially:

So no idea if/when consumer GPU will get HW Ray Tracing and DXR support.

The announcement itself is truly not much longer, so rather than lead into it I’ll just repost it verbatim.
“I’m pleased to share today that the Intel® Xe architecture roadmap for data center optimized rendering includes ray tracing hardware acceleration support for the Intel® Rendering Framework family of API’s and libraries.”
So no idea if/when consumer GPU will get HW Ray Tracing and DXR support.
