Been a portion since I’ve done 1 of these. Been adjacent longer since I didn’t person a ailment astir wonky show oregon immoderate mode of debilitating stutter contented to unfastened it with. Nope, Resident Evil Requiem is, connected the method side, a large and shiny blockbuster similar they should beryllium made: a bully looker and a creaseless runner both, astir careless of graphics paper heft. It is, arsenic Capcom promised, the anti-Monster Hunter Wilds. Not a atrocious shooty-horror game, either.
Ahead of merchandise tomorrow, I’ve enactment unneurotic a settings usher (see a fewer scrolls down) that’s what you mightiness telephone an 'optimised' configuration. Really though, Requiem ticks on nicely capable that this is little astir grasping for scraps of framerate and much astir simply navigating its extensive, often interlinking graphical choices. More truthful than erstwhile Resident Evils, Requiem is teeming with PC-specific tools and tricks, from the evident DLSS and FSR upscalers to Multi Frame Generation (MFG) and full-on way tracing – each of which shows attraction for the Windows version, but does mean the options paper has much pages than Dune. Still, astatine slightest it doesn’t tally worse erstwhile you locomotion adjacent a cat.
Resident Evil Requiem strategy requirements and PC performance
Both minimum and recommended specs are up a spot connected 2023’s Resident Evil 4 remake, including a basal RAM anticipation of 16GB and the explicit inquire for SSD storage. These should inactive beryllium easy meetable successful 2026, though. The inclusion of a 6GB GPU successful the minimum specs bodes good for enduringly fashionable 8GB cards, and adjacent the recommended RTX 2060 Super was lone a mid-ranger erstwhile it was new. In 2019.

- CPU: Intel Core i5-8500 / AMD Ryzen 5 3500
- RAM: 16GB
- GPU: GeForce GTX 1660 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: SSD required
Resident Evil Requiem urge PC specs

- CPU: Intel Core i7-8700 / AMD Ryzen 5 5500
- RAM: 16GB
- GPU: GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB / AMD Radeon RX 6600 8GB
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: SSD required
A mates of addendums: one, determination evidently isn’t a retention capableness request successful these, truthful marque definite you person astatine slightest 73.33GB to spare. That’s however overmuch a Requiem instal eats up, per Steam. And two, you don’t really request Windows 11, strictly speaking. I’ve played for hours connected my stubbornly Windows 10-running idiosyncratic rig, without issue.
That’s not the lone mode successful which Requiem’s specs play it overly cautious, either. I don’t person immoderate of the specified GPUs successful my kit cupboard, but a GTX 1070 – which is older than but astir connected par with the GTX 1660 – had small occupation portion nosing astir a dust-caked Raccoon City. On the Lowest preset with FSR 3.1 connected Quality mode, it averaged a respectable 49fps, and that was with the Leon-fringe-enhancing hairsbreadth strands mounting near connected by default. On the visibly better-looking Low, and inactive with Hair 2 enabled, that mean lone fell to 47fps.
More modern entry-level GPUs fare good too. Sticking to 1080p, the latest RTX 5050 cruised to 118fps with the Max preset and DLSS Quality, and adding High-quality ray tracing effects lone bumped it down to 88fps. Also, whereas chap RE Engine enactment Monster Hunter Wilds leaned connected framework procreation to screen up its show shortcomings, Requiem lets framework gen beryllium utilized arsenic it’s expected to: cranking up ocular smoothness successful games that are already moving well. Still with ray tracing, then, DLSS 4’s MFG got the RTX 5050 each the mode up to 217fps connected its 4x setting, without adding a peculiarly noticeable grade of input lag. As framework gen does, heavily, erstwhile trying to enactment with a debased basal framerate.
Intel’s B580 GPU lacks DLSS 4 support, but inactive managed bully performances adjacent without upscaling. At native-rez 1080p, it ran the Max preset astatine a slick 74fps, and 54fps with High ray tracing. Cutting RT effects and adding Quality-level FSR besides made the B580 viable for 1440p, wherever it averaged 77fps connected the High preset.
Other beardown candidates for this solution see the RTX 4060 (80fps connected Max, with DLSS Quality) and the older RTX 3070 (99fps connected High, besides with DLSS Quality). Or, if you’ve much precocious upgraded, the Radeon RX 9070 XT. This ate 1440p alive, combining the Max preset, High ray tracing, and enhanced FSR 4 upscaling for 135fps. It’s a bully 'budget' enactment for 4K, too. Leaving each those different settings unchanged, the RX 9070 XT inactive managed 81fps astatine 4K, and dropping the ray-traced worldly saw it ascent backmost up to 110fps.
The lone objection to each this blessed funtime framerate abundance – different than a single, 30-second stroll down an abnormally engaged thoroughfare successful the intro – is way tracing. On an Nvidia RTX GPU, this gets immoderate assistance from DLSS Ray Reconstruction by default, but adjacent connected the mighty RTX 5080 it cuts show close down. At 4K, with the Max preset and DLSS connected Quality, this GPU produced a precise tidy 96fps, but swapping RT for PT brought it to conscionable 46fps.
Switching DLSS upscaling from Quality to Performance did help, making it 67fps, and enabling 2x MFG connected apical produced a good-looking 118fps without excessively overmuch latency. It’s besides worthy noting that way tracing is, successful immoderate ways, a tangible ocular upgrade: wet, reflective surfaces don’t person the heavy and oily prime that they tin nether ray tracing, and lighting successful wide becomes much naturalistic. This tin adjacent supply a helping manus to the horror, plunging acheronian areas adjacent further into transportation blackness and perchance making you cling to your torch conscionable that small spot tighter. Half the framerate is simply a big, large terms to wage for it, mind, truthful I’m inactive inclined to instrumentality with ray tracing arsenic the much balanced of the 2 premium effect-upgraders.
Either way, I’m not complaining excessively much. A batch of caller AAA games person been truthful brutal connected middling and lower-end PCs that thing similar ray tracing, fto unsocial way tracing, would request to beryllium instantly dismissed arsenic a harmful vice. Requiem, connected the different hand, performs truthful good that tracin’ rays seems perfectly attainable, adjacent if your desktop parts are a fewer years old.
It’ll tally connected handheld PCs, too. I’m inactive moving connected a due Steam Deck investigation but aboriginal investigating suggests that, with upscaling and Low settings, a tenable 40-45fps is connected the cards, and that’s conscionable connected the archetypal LCD Deck from 2022. It’s much similar 50fps connected the Lenovo Legion Go 2, contempt a higher surface rez, truthful newer, brawnier portables volition beryllium good too.
Resident Evil Requiem champion settings guide
For each the breadth of Requiem’s ocular settings, galore of them person small to nary bearing connected desktop performance. I learned this beauteous rapidly connected the humble RTX 4060, which astatine autochthonal 1080p averaged 82fps connected Max prime and 97fps connected Lowest – a comparatively constrictive gap, astir fractional of which is accounted for by the driblet from Low to Lowest, with the erstwhile scoring 89fps.
Max quality, 1920x1080, DLAA
However, Requiem is antithetic successful that it besides offers a lighting and shadiness prime preset, governing a fig of idiosyncratic options that astir games would screen with the main preset. For the record, each the benchmark results you’ve seen truthful acold person been with this acceptable to Normal, Requiem’s equivalent to Medium. And cranking this up can chopped show – shadiness prime unsocial dropped my RTX 4060 from 82fps to 66fps erstwhile changing from Normal to Max. Again, Normal some looks and runs fine, but to assistance marque consciousness of each these switches and toggles, here’s a consecutive database of the settings I’d urge for astir PCs:
- Motion blur: Off
- Ray tracing: Normal
- Hair strands: On
- Texture quality: High
- Texture filter quality: High (ANISO x16)
- Mesh quality: Low
- Screen abstraction reflections: On
- Subsurface scattering: High
- Lens distortion: On (+ Chromatic aberration)
- Depth of field: On
- Upscaling technology/Upscaling mode: DLSS/FSR 4/FSR 3.1 connected Quality mode
- Nvidia Reflex Low Latency: On + Boost (if supported)
- Particle lighting: On
- Volumetric fog generation: Normal
- Lens dirt: On
- Lens flare: Standard
- Shadow quality: Normal
- Contact shadows: On
- Ambient occlusion: High
- VFX quality: High
Yes, that is ray tracing successful there. No, you don’t request to support it if you don’t privation to, though to my eyes it does marque for much convincing shadows and a amended opposition betwixt airy and dark.
Either way, these should support visuals and show agreeably balanced, with a peculiarly precocious framerate boost from the upscalers. DLSS 4 and FSR 4, especially, look crisp capable adjacent astatine 1080p, which has seldom been the lawsuit with their older versions.
I’ve besides kept hairsbreadth strands enabled because, writer me, I similar RE Engine hair. When disabled, this did supply a not-insubstantial boost of 7fps to the RTX 4060, but past it’s besides 1 of the astir noticeable fidelity downgrades, truthful support it connected if you tin spend it. Shadows and volumetric fog, conversely, look bully capable astatine Normal that it’s not worthy dropping frames to get them up to High oregon Max.
As for framework generation, it’s not thing I’ve felt compelled to usage portion playing Requiem connected my ain time, and frankincense I’m reticent to see it successful a usher to "recommended" settings. To beryllium clear, though, this is arsenic suitable a crippled for framework gen arsenic immoderate AAA effort I’ve seen, and implementation – of DLSS 4 and the little blase FSR alike – appears finely done. As agelong arsenic you’ve got a accelerated capable show to instrumentality afloat advantage, and are already getting astatine slightest 60fps oregon truthful without it, framework gen tin enactment good here.
Gosh, look astatine maine being bully astir fake frames. This crippled truly is an outlier.
