A big thanks to PQube for providing the game key.
Tormented Souls II is built on Unreal Engine 5 and performs well, delivering high fps. This is likely because not all demanding UE5 features were used. The performance has improved significantly compared to the demo version.
Virtual Shadow Maps, which noticeably enhance shadow quality, were present in the demo and on the gameโs Steam screenshots but were removed from the final version. I tried enabling them manually (they only work in DX12) through the config, and shadows indeed looked much better - however, in some rooms, shadow artifacts appeared. Thatโs probably why VSMs was disabled in the release version.
The game supports both DX11 and DX12. DX11 is the default option, but you can enable DX12 by adding -dx12 to the Steam launch options. Which one to choose? Visually, thereโs no difference - I checked by taking and comparing screenshots. DX11 is better if your GPU is fully utilized; otherwise, DX12 can be more efficient since it uses CPU resources more effectively. Thatโs why DX12 was used for RX 6600 XT + 1080p, while DX11 was chosen for RX 6600 XT + 1440p.
TSR is surprisingly demanding for some reason, while DLAA provides noticeably higher fps. To enable DLAA, set Upscaling: Nvidia DLSS and Anti-Aliasing: TSR (this is required - if you pick anything other than TSR, DLAA wonโt activate). Iโm not sure why it behaves this way, but I expect it to be fixed in a future patch.
