Control Resonant PC requirements demand 120GB of SSD space and upscaling at every setting
Remedy has split the PC requirements into two sections: with and without ray tracing/path tracing. Read Entire Article
Control Resonant, the highly anticipated sequel to Remedy Entertainment's 2019 hit Control, is set to launch on September 24. The game has been announced with its final PC system requirements, which may require some serious hardware upgrades for optimal performance.
To run the game at 1080p resolution with a frame rate of 30fps, players will need a GTX 1070 graphics card and a Core i5-8500 processor. However, this will require a whopping 120GB of SSD space.
On the other hand, enabling ray tracing/path tracing at 4K resolution with 60fps while maintaining High graphics settings demands an RTX 5080 graphics card alongside a Core i7-10700 or Ryzen 7 3700X CPU. Upscaling must be set to performance mode for this level of specifications.
Interestingly, Remedy has maintained transparency about whether these requirements apply when upscaling is used, unlike some other developers. Thus, it is possible to enjoy the game with a GTX 1070 and a Core i5-8500, albeit at a lower resolution and frame rate.
Control Resonant also demands 16GB of RAM across all categories. The game supports HDR, ultrawide aspect ratios, DLSS 4.5, and FSR 4.1 at launch. The minimum storage requirement is a hefty 120GB of SSD space – a significant amount compared to many other games. Despite this, Control Resonant appears to offer a significant departure from the original game, moving towards an action-RPG style with a focus on melee combat and player-driven progression.
Early previews have been largely positive about this shift. The game can be pre-purchased now on Steam and the Epic Games Store, arriving on September 24.
