Graphics and performance
- Upscalers
- NVIDIA DLSS 4.5, AMD FSR 4, Intel XeSS 3.0 and Unreal Engine TSR are supported.
- Frame generation
- DLSS 4.5 with Dynamic Multi Frame Generation is built in, and multi frame generation is an optional setting on PC.
- Max FPS
- Choose 30, 60, 90, 120, 144, 240 or Unlimited. Unlimited does not cap your frame rate.
- Field of view
- A field of view slider was added on all platforms.
- Chromatic Aberration and Film Grain
- Each can be turned off in the settings.
- HDR and ultrawide
- Both are supported, and HDR calibration was improved on all platforms.
- Advanced Shader Delivery
- Ready-made shaders arrive with the game, which cuts load times and first-run stutter. It works on AMD hardware now, and NVIDIA support was due later in October.
- Benchmark
- A built-in benchmark mode comes with advanced PC settings.
Steam Deck and handhelds
Valve has not rated the game for Steam Deck, so its status shows as unknown. A third-party test by PC Guide found the Steam Deck LCD stays below 20 FPS on the low preset and often dips under 30 FPS. It cites reviewers who call the game too heavy on the processor for the Deck. The MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ did best of the handhelds tested.
