Video Description

Developer Warhorse Studio reunites with the CryEngine technology to fashion a sequel to its 2017 cult RPG hit. This time though, the focus is purely on the current-gen crop of consoles, including a PS5 Pro upgrade that combines all the best features of base PS5's 30fps fidelity and 60fps performance modes into one configuration. Note: AMD's FSR 2.1.2 is used on PS5 and Series X versions as the upscaler - while the PC version uses FSR 3.1.0.
