Need for Speed fans, here is something for you today. Modder alessandro893 has released Version 0.5 for his amazing RTX Remix Mod for Need for Speed: Underground. This mod adds real-time Path Tracing to this classic racing game. So, let’s see what this new version brings to the table.
Version 0.5 has over 500 new textures. The modder has created a variety of new textures to enhance the game’s visuals, adding intricate detail and realism to the environment. Moreover, the mod introduces a range of new, high-poly models to replace or enhance existing assets. These new 3D modes will bring a fresh level of detail and depth to the game world.
NFS: Underground RTX V0.5 will give a big upgrade to the famous China Town area. It adds new models, better textures, and cool lighting effects. This will make the area look more detailed and exciting. The modder also improved the “Lock Up” Sprint Race Track. It now has more trees, plants, and better surroundings. These changes will make racing feel even more fun and realistic.
This is by far one of the best RTX Remix Mods for old classic games. You can go ahead and download it from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a video for it.
In 2024, we shared a lot of RTX Remix Mods for various games. In January 2023, we shared several RTX Remix Mods that are in the works. As such, you can take a look at screenshots and videos for Tomb Raider 2, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Manhunt, and Garfield Kart RTX Remix. Then, in February 2024, we shared videos for Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Unreal, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4 and Midnight Club 2. In March 2024, we also shared the first screenshots from the RTX Remix Mod for Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines. Finally, you can check out some early RTX Remix videos and screenshots for Fallout: New Vegas, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, COD 2, and Half-Life.
Speaking of Path Tracing Mods for older titles, you might also want to check out the following ones. Modders released demos for their Path Tracing Mods for Deus Ex, Tomb Raider, and Call of Duty 4. Do note that the COD4 Mod is a “proof of concept” demo, and it does not look that great. Let’s also not forget the RTX Remix for COD: WoW. And then we have the RTX Remix Mods for Underground 2, Painkiller, and Left 4 Dead 2. Oh, and don’t forget to give a go at this RTX Remix for Unreal Tournament 2004. In September 2024, we also shared a new version of the RTX Remix Mod for Max Payne. Finally, you can download Path Tracing Mods for Doom, Doom 2, Quake, and Serious Sam.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Looking fantastic.
And so far, of ALL the RTX "remixed" games I've seen in the past 3 years, I think it's the only one that looks playable and a massive improvement. (I mean, most of them have completely broken lighting)
I know, it's not just RTX, it's literally a full remaster at this point.
Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines is also getting a "full RTX remaster" treatment, can't wait to see the final version!
This is actually starting to look very nice! Keep it up!
EA instead of these useless NFS games:
Need for Speed: ProStreet 2007
Need for Speed: Undercover 2008
Need for Speed: Shift 2009 (If it were called something else it would still be fine)
Need for Speed: Nitro 2009
Need for Speed: World 2010
Shift 2: Unleashed 2011
Need for Speed: The Run 2011
Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2012
Need for Speed Rivals 2013
Need for Speed 2015
Need for Speed Payback 2017
Need for Speed Heat 2019
Need for Speed Unbound 2022
They could have made NFS:U3 or at least NFS:U1 and 2 Remake a long time ago. Well, it seems that money and time can still be found for stupid things, but not for good things anymore. Battlefield 4 and why if BC3 would be better. Instead of a full-fledged Skate 4, they are making a F2P game. It was a mistake that they canceled EA Sport Big. I have all the games and I will play them today and they can get rid of me. EA only promises and lies. They announced a new Fight Night and have been silent since then. After I played Dead Space Remake, I thought they would make DS2, but they didn't, which is a big shame, DS3 is already a useless game, but DS2 Remake should still be made.
I tried Need for Speed: Underground RTX Remix Mod V0.5 and it already looks fantastic and will only get better. I would rather financially support creators like EA who refuse to listen to the community.
Loved playing this growing up. I think it’s time to give it another spin!
Was Miss Daisy being driven in this car in the video I wonder?
