Returnal PC - DF Tech Review - Optimised Settings, PS5 vs PC Comparisons + More
8,011Join Alex Battaglia for a deep dive into the fascinating PC port of the PlayStation 5 masterpiece, Returnal. This is a PC version with so much to commend it, including enhanced RT features, big boosts to image quality and one of the best settings screens and benchmarks we've ever seen. It's a patch or two from greatness - but unless you have a high-end CPU, we can't recommend it for everyone in its current state.
