PC requirements: use the final 120 GB SSD listing

Quick answer

Plan for 120 GB available on an SSD and 16 GB RAM. Remedy’s current Steam listing supersedes earlier 100 GB figures. Meeting a listed tier does not establish your exact frame rate.

Read performance targets with their conditions

The final September 9 announcement has a separate performance chart. Its targets distinguish resolution, graphics settings, upscaling and tracing. A GPU name alone is not a native-resolution performance promise.

This page compares the official storefront hardware tiers. Kingy has not benchmarked the game, verified handheld performance or established Mac requirements.

Make a useful first-launch check

An old requirements image or a launch-era Control settings guide can give the wrong starting point. Use the current Resonant listing and its own settings.

  1. Compare the complete CPU and GPU model names, rather than relying on a brand or product family.
  2. Choose an SSD installation location with enough free space. Leave additional working room for updates if you can; no exact patch-space allowance is confirmed.
  3. Record your resolution and graphics preset before changing settings. Change one option at a time so you can judge its effect.
  4. If performance remains poor, include your hardware, game version and a repeatable scene in a support report.
