PS5’s Best Exclusive Launch on PC Next Month

Returnal's PC release date has been officially announced as February 15 by Housemarque and PlayStation Studios on the PlayStation Blog. With this release, we also received a brand-new trailer and additional information regarding the demanding specifications and eye-catching graphics that drew Digital Trends' attention in December. If you want to maximize Returnal's speed on PC, which is important for such a fast-paced action game, you may do it by using AMD's FSR technology, Nvidia DLSS, and NIS. Regarding the visuals, Returnal's PC version will feature ray-traced shadows in addition to 21:9 and 32:9 Ultrawide monitors. The term "ray-traced audio," which Sony claims the game has, isn't commonly used in the gaming industry and appears to be just another name for the detailed 3D audio that is a typical element of most first-party PlayStation Studios games.

Housemarque also reiterated that Returnal requires a powerful PC to run. Although 16 GB of RAM is now the minimum requirement for both the minimum and recommended specifications, 32 GB of RAM is still necessary if you want to play Returnal at a 4K resolution with ray tracing at 60 frames per second (fps) with an Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti GPU, Intel i9-11900K CPU, and 32 GB of RAM. This fits with the current trend of exceedingly difficult PC games. The PC release date for Returnal has now been announced. Returnal's PC version was announced at The Game Awards 2022 along with one for The Last of Us Part I. On April 30, 2021, the game was initially released as a PS5 exclusive. Returnal is already playable on the PS5, and the PC version launches on February 15.
