Summary
- COD: Black Ops 7 is first major game to feature AMD's "Redstone" graphics tech
- Machine Learning Ray Generation enables advanced lighting and ray tracing
- Radeon RX 9000 series cards support this new feature at launch
As of November 14th, 2025, the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has launched, and it is the first major game to feature AMD's new "Redstone" graphics technology. The centerpiece of this new software is the Machine Learning Ray Generation feature, which allows Radeon RX 9000 series users to experience advanced, ray-traced lighting in the game.
Machine Learning Ray Generation is a significant advancement in real-time rendering, as it enables the graphics card to "learn" lighting patterns and then apply them in an approximate but highly effective manner. This helps reduce noise and grit in ray tracing while rendering at a lower resolution and then upscaling the image. The result is a visually stunning experience for players on supported hardware.
