TechSpot got in touch with UL Benchmarks (formerly known as Futuremark) and got to hear that they're currently developing a ray tracing 3DMark TimeSpy benchmark. This benchmark will be part of the next iteration of 3DMark, which is expected to be released late September:
UL Benchmarks could not yet make public the next iteration of the suite, but they did confirm they are currently developing a ray tracing benchmark (without disclosing exact dates). The release would, then, "align with the launch of Redstone 5", said a UL representative. Redstone 5, or “Windows 10 1809” as it's now known is the Microsoft Fall 2018 OS update and is scheduled to launch in late September. The release is said to include a new version of the 3DMark TimeSpy benchmark.
