A couple of days ago, Capcom released the Ray Tracing Updates for Resident Evil 7, 2 & 3. These patches ditched DX11 over DX12, and increased the game’s overall GPU requirements. And, after a huge backlash, the Japanese team has re-enabled DX11 via beta branches.
All you have to do in order to play the DX11 versions of Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 3 Remake is follow this guide.
- Click LIBRARY in Steam client.
- Right-click the game and select “”Properties…””
- In the pop-up menu, select “”BETAS””
- From the pull-down menu, select “”dx11_non-rt”” (Note: password not required)
- Close the pop-up menu and let the Steam client auto-update the game
- You should be able to launch the game normally once the update completes
Now what’s great here is that all the bug fixes and tweaks that Capcom brought to the game are present in these DX11 versions. The only things they lack are ray tracing and the enhanced 3D audio. Capcom also stated that both enhanced and previous versions will be made available going forward.
Have fun!

Well capcom, next time don’t force stupid as* decisions on people in the first place.
Why o’ why would someone thumb you down for speaking facts.
Maybe some people just like it when others make idiotic decision for them!
Ahhhh, well said. That would explain the last 3 years actually. Damn you nailed it. Peace & Blessings man.
Blessings to you too, friend.
*they didn’t release the Dx11 titles again … they basically reactivated the existing ones to access
Well done.
? Why? DX12 runs phenomenally on every game I’ve ever played.
What a genius conclusion. “I’ve never had a problem with it, so clearly, nobody else must either.”
Scholarly.
You can still play DX12, don’t worry.
you guys don’t have RT card? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/87fbf4d9ebd9b75547e96967bda589dc9a601d692a71d95f596964ed09b523b0.jpg
Haha, nah we just like to play everything at 120fps +
What a sh*t show.
So, why can’t they include both options in the first place?
And that’s all they had to do. As for the bxttholes that were saying “you should’ve backed up your game and then apply a crack to it”… You are just that, a steaming Bxtthole of spineless jelly.
why are you so hostile about everything
Because someone was passive agressive sniping at him.
I’ll tell you why, he’s online where no one can touch him. Therefor he loves acting out like a rabid dog. He starts talking like that just don’t respond because he’s trying to get a rise out of people. It’s 2022 ain’t nobody scared of being called any of that online. Because we know in person he’s likely to get shot and dumped in the woods to be fed on by the dogs he’s so famous for acting like. Furthermore, dude argues like a hormonal woman. The sad part is there are a lot of people on here that talk the same way he does and act the same way. Probably the product of a single mom that was born in a meth lab. Straight up trash people.
i know about the degeneracy what we are experiencing atm but smallest things seems trigger you. you keep posting how pozzed things are which is admirable but if you keep it extreme like answering every silly things will make this site purged like one angry gamer before. also i dont ignore anyone.
This guy is a dumb n1gg3r, he blocked me ages ago. I kind of understand steam always updating online only games, but single player games? GTFO with that bs, piracy all the way, that fat fraud Gabe says piracy is a service problem, except piracy is still the best service there is.
It’s clear this n1gg3r should have stick with consoles, because thinking out of the box and looking for solutions ain’t their “thang”. But then again, corporations go all the way to appease these f4gg0ts, so that’s why they can’t think for themselves for once.
Well, from what I can tell of your conversation fragments here, you’re both right.
He’s saying, you shouldn’t have to go through this garbage, which, he’s right, a paying customer shouldn’t.
You’re giving methods of sidestepping, which, sure, they are viable. However, those methods may not always be viable.
If the game were secured against cracks, your method would not be an option, and so, it’s not a reliable method if this type of crap starts becoming commonplace, going forward.
If the game were secured against cracks, which many are today, and who knows what the future holds, then you’d be at the mercy of the corporation.
Each inch you give up to these companies today, will equal a foot you have to try and regain from them, sometime in the future.
Should never have bought the game in the first place. If the game have denuvo, too bad, still no buy.
Nothing wrong with that method, except for the fact they never should have bought the game in the first place. It’s clear this n1gg3r should have stick with consoles, because thinking out of the box and looking for solutions ain’t their “thang”. Anyone not blocked by the guy feel free to reply to him with a screenshot of my post.
“RT on RE2,3 and 7 broke the game in performance….”
I can attest to this. I go from 60 fps solid, to like (no joke) 16 fps, in the main hall. So, first thought was like, “Whoa, something here is killing my performance. I better look into this.”
Close down the game, reload it, and it’s solid 60 in that entire area, and then later, out of nowhere, I drop to about 20 fps in the little hallway leading to the STARS office. Same thing. Restart, ran fine.
To no surprise, it happened again, and again…. I’ll stick with the DX11 version, that actually works.
“Also cue the corpo f4gs who were licking the boot and saying people should buy a new PC or upgrade their OS.”
Another pathetic truth. The Steam forums were full of these losers. It was almost funny. Almost….
GOOD! Gonna Time to 100% this game anyway.
It’s simply amazing how disconnected these companies are. I mean, whoever was in charge of this whole debacle, didn’t realize that not everyone has a friggen DX12 card, or runs Win10 or higher?
Make whatever jokes you may want of weaker hardware, but, many people still use older stuff just fine. My brother still runs an old 780, and for him, it’s perfectly fine, why would he go out and spend a bunch of money, on something he doesn’t need?
When the game first came out, it had one set of requirements, and then out of nowhere, Capcom thinks it’s okay to just arbitrarily change them? That’s the beauty of the “all digital future” these d**kheads want. Where what you buy today, isn’t what you’ll necessarily have tomorrow, at their whim.
Astonishing how little these companies give a single f**k. I mean, we all know they don’t, but it’s a bit surprising to what degree they don’t.
This should have never happened.
Did the game support dual sense feature natively on PC??
Bro, what? Did they honestly expect anything else other than backlash for screwing over thousands of people?
When are these devs gonna learn, man… WE ARE ON PC, PC GAMING IS ALL ABOUT OPTIONS, SO ALLOW PLAYERS TO CHOOSE BETWEEN DX 11 AND 12 ffs.
If they did that, there would be little to no backlash.
There was no need nor justification for the removal in the 1st place, those games are not “current” and not getting new DLC like 8.
It has really become hard to dicern from ritardation and malice.
