I played Control Resonant on PC with Nvidia's DLSS Ray Reconstruction — and it beats PS5 Pro hands down

Control Resonant, a visually striking action RPG from Remedy Entertainment, has been impressively optimized for PC gaming. The game, which has been pushed to its limits by Remedy for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nvidia GeForce Now and macOS, offers a semi-open world setting that benefits from detailed particle effects and a range of lighting and scenery. PC gamers can expect outstanding visuals, especially when paired with Nvidia's DLSS 4.5 and its ray reconstruction technology.

The game's performance on PC is exceptional, with a tested specs configuration of an AMD Ryzen 7 9700X CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU, and 32GB of RAM achieving a stable 140 fps at 4K resolution with high settings, an Ultra ray trace mode, and DLSS Ray Reconstruction. This level of optimization is impressive, especially for a PC port, as it delivers a high-quality gaming experience without requiring the latest graphics cards.

Control Resonant offers a variety of graphics settings, allowing players to customize visuals to their liking. The game includes options for managing texture resolution, fog rendering, and more, even explaining what each setting does. This level of customization enables players to achieve the desired balance between visual quality and frame rates, with presets available for different system capabilities.

Players can select a graphics preset tailored for lower-powered systems, such as handheld gaming devices, without needing to adjust settings manually. Overall, Control Resonant stands out as a triumph for PC gaming, offering a visually stunning and performant experience that is truly impressive.
