Ray Tracing on PlayStation 5? 120Hz Dynamic 4k mode? Or is this pre calculated ? I was very surprised to see theses exact mirrored reflections on the water.

Ray tracing is another thing.
This is called screen space reflections. This is a basic technique to simulate reflections, but they are far from accurate. Ray traced reflections are more complex than that, but the image result is more life-like and accurate.

Ray tracing isn’t the only way to do lighting and reflections. There is multiple other less accurate techniques. The only Cod with ray tracing in gameplay is cold war I believe.
