Quick update, turns out it does use some form of HW acceleration:
"It uses DX11 but we have the Vulkan extensions on top. It's a way which I think has never been done in a triple-A game before"

Bit of a weird solution... I don't know why they didn't just build in on Vulkan/DX12 from the ground up - perhaps a limitation of using the old engine? Either way it's not quite fully realised RT IMO but at least DLSS is going to be patched in!
Run on:
Core i7 6700k | 32GB RAM | RTX 2080
