Returnal To Release On PC On February 15th; Detailed System Requirements Revealed

Housemarque's PlayStation 5 exclusive Returnal will hit PC next month, complete with a slew of features not available on console, such as NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR support and much more.

Today, Sony confirmed the game will be released on PC on February 15th with a brand new trailer that goes over some of its PC-exclusive features, such as NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR support. The game will also support NVIDIA NVIS as well as 21:9 and 32:9 resolutions. Returnal on PC will also support not only ray-traced shadows but also ray-traced reflections.

Alongside confirming the game's PC- exclusive features, Housemarque revealed more detailed Returnal system requirements for a variety of resolution and quality settings. As expected, ray tracing at 4K resolution will be extremely demanding, requiring an Intel i9-11900K or AMD Ryzen 9 5900X CPU, RTX 3080ti or RX 6950 XT GPU, and 32 GB RAM.
