Not sure why it should make sense only for old games.
I’ll try and find the post from a couple days ago that had an article about it. I only half read it because I wasn’t overly interested reading about games I don’t for see myself playing/playing again. The article was specifically about this tho and why I even asked.

Ray tracing renders things similar to how our eyes perceive light. You can look ups some rasterization vs ray tracing videos to get the gist of it.
