Quake II RTX released back in 2019, with NVIDIA using it to show off more ray tracing effects for their RTX GPUs but now they're done with it.

Lack of adoption of ray tracing is one thing, but halting development on a 6-year-old tech demo is completely reasonable on all fronts. They aren’t even delisting it from Steam or anything, it’s still fully playable.
