    No XeSS necessary? Great news indeed!

    Edit: nvm there DLSS/FSR 😞😞

  2. CanisMajoris85

    Interesting they used a 3700x across the board aside from the minimum, not a 3600 anywhere for like medium.

  3. forevertired1982

    How is it ultra with FSR performance literally makes zero sense?

  4. ApprehensiveTone7187

    I think this is the first game with DLSS/FSR in the requirements

  5. Also requires Epic so… RIP

    Really sad to see minimum requirements now have upscalers. So games aren’t even running native 1080p anymore… We’re regressing

    What about AMD for high Ray tracing 2160p settings? I’m assuming I fall somewhere in-between high and med for my 7900 XT?

  7. Onyx_Sentinel

    we’re looking at another unoptimized mess

  8. ARatOnPC

    Literally relying on fsr/dlss is a big no no.

  9. Wow, this might be Remedy’s first L in a long time. These specs are hideous. I should not be fighting for my life to get 1440p/60 with my 2080 Super with no RTX.

  10. Inclinedbenchpress

    So with a 3070 I’ll be able to get 60 fps at 1080, but I have to use DLSS on performance mode to get 60 fps, wich means the game will be rendering at like, what, 540p? Idk maybe I just didn’t get it, hope I’m wrong, otherwise this is BS
    EDIT: also EPIC exclusive, big NOPE to me so far

  11. szarfolt

    If this is true, this is horrible. A 3070 can’t get 60 fps without DLSS Performance at 1080p on a MEDIUM preset? That’s criminal.

  12. DeepJudgment

    Looks like hideous optimisation to me. You’re telling me I’ll be getting like 30 fps on medium settling in native 1080 on my RX 6650 XT? Cyberpunk 2077 runs 75+ fps on ultra with no RT or upscaling. Sure, the game is 3 years old, but still

  13. seenybusiness

    1080p with dlss/fsr set to performance for 60fps on a 3070???????

    this has gone too far.

  14. munitionchipsintoys

    Looks like I’m playing on ps5 lmao

  15. monkeyboyape

    And yet consoles are doing 60 fps with 2070 level GPUs and Zen 1.8 CPUs.

    LOL

    This wouldn’t be a bad benchmark if it wasn’t relying on DLSS/FSR. Balanced upscaling to reach 30 fps on a 3060 @ 1440p? Oof. I miss the days when upscaling was for playing demanding games on poor hardware that you otherwise couldn’t play, or just getting a nice FPS boost if you had good hardware, or being able to push higher resolutions and still get decent fps. Whereas now upscaling is needed just to be playable, and barely that since 30 fps was phased out a while ago…

    At least all these hilarious requirements prevent me from ever wanting to upgrade. It’d be one thing if each gpu generation made giant leaps and I needed to get the modern xx60/x600, but needing 80 tiers for stuff is so out of reach I can just ignore it all.

  17. CharlesEverettDekker

    This game literally begs to be a financial flop
    You can’t play this game with good fps and good picture if you are not raking 40 series, this game is also a EGS exclusive.
    So basically wait for a discount on Steam whenever it goes there after all the patches and like a pc upgrade.

  18. TheGutchee

    FSR/DLSS should never exist on a requirement sheet.

  19. DeusInfidel

    the time dawns where a 2070S is not gonna suffice anymore

  20. GendalfHeadShacker

    FSR/DLSS in requirements = developers don’t care about optimization

  21. lategmaker

    What horrible spec req sheet. Couldn’t bother to put Intel equivalent, gpu recommendations for all tiers are all over the place and no native rendering tier. This game is definitely NOT FINISHED.

  22. coffeefuelledtechie

    My specs would put me somewhere between low and medium.

    Wow.

  23. nevermore2627

    What the hell are we doing with upscaling on the requirement specs?

    😬 Yikes.

  24. StoneRule

    “Is this an early April fool’s joke?”

  25. Iuseahandyforreddit

    “or Intel equivalent”

    ​

    whats that supposed to mean, just say what cpu is equivalent

  26. Mysterious-Stand3254

    1080p Medium FSR Performance 60 FPS.
    With a 6700XT?
    The fuck

  27. Cheesi_Boi

    Since when is the 3070 a $500 card btw, a 1080p card?

  28. McQuibbly

    TIL my specs are for 1080p gaming at medium settings
