Estimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.

Best settings

60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
60 fps at 1440p: medium preset
144 fps at 1080p: not reachable

NVIDIA RTX card: turn on DLSS in quality mode before dropping the preset; FSR and XeSS also work if the game lacks DLSS.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce RTX 3070 back.
Processor needed for ~81 fps: Ryzen 3 3300X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~81 fps.
