CONTROL-5

Remedy lowers the PC requirements for Control


Remedy has just released the revised/final PC requirements for Control. What’s really interesting here is that the team has lowered both the recommended and the RTX requirements. Whether this is due to a better optimization (or just so that the game has lower PC specs) remains to be seen.

Remedy previously listed an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080Ti and an AMD Radeon VII graphics card for the game’s recommended requirements. However, the team has now replaced them with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660/1060 and an AMD Radeon RX 580.

For RTX, Remedy recommended an NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080, however it now recommends an NVIDIA GeForce RTX2060.

Unfortunately, Remedy did not reveal any additional details about both the minimum and recommended requirements. As such, we don’t know the resolution and settings that these specs target.

But anyway, the good news here is that Control will not be that GPU-heavy, presumably, at 1080p.

Below you can find the final PC requirements for Remedy’s supernatural action adventure title.
