Google Pixel 6a Camera to Ditch The Flagship Motion Mode From the Pixel 6 Series An Android developer has discovered the evidence from the Pixel Tips app which suggests that the Pixel 6a will not get Google’s Motion Mode feature (via XDA-Developers).

The new videos, shared on YouTube by Ray Tracing Revolution and MxBenchmarkPC, not only confirm how the improvements are somewhat subtle, mostly due to the game already having great screen space reflections but also highlight how the game’s ray tracing features are extremely demanding, as the impact on performance is huge, even on high-end systems and with NVIDIA DLSS.

Now, we don’t know if The Art and Making of Hogwarts Legacy has the same release date as the game, but due to spoilers, it would be extremely unlikely for a behind-the-scenes book like this to be released first.
