Control Resonant PC requirements are here: RTX 5080 recommended for 4K path tracing

Remedy Entertainment says Control Resonant launches on Sept. 24, 2026 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, and the studio has now shared the game’s PC requirements. At the top end, there’s a 4K/60 FPS path-tracing target that calls for an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080.

There’s some fine print on that 4K/60 FPS path-tracing preset. Remedy is assuming Performance-mode upscaling rather than native 4K, and its benchmark leaves out Frame Generation, so compatible GeForce cards could post better numbers if you’re okay with the usual latency hit and image-quality compromises. Remedy also confirms support for NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 and AMD FSR 4.1, which makes it pretty obvious that upscaling is doing a lot of the work here.

At the lower end, Remedy says you can aim for 1080p/30 FPS on low with a GTX 1070, RX 5600 XT, or Intel Arc A580. For 1440p/60 FPS on medium, the listed target is an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT. Every setup on the chart also shares the same baseline: 16 GB of RAM and 120 GB of SSD storage.

If you’re planning to play Control Resonant on PC, these specs are worth a look. The game seems flexible enough for older hardware if you keep your settings modest, but high-end path tracing is clearly going to be a serious GPU stress test.

Control Resonant launches on Sept. 24, 2026 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
