We test at 2880×1620 with the Very High image quality preset, shown above.
This is a demanding engine, however the GTX970m is generally up to the task. We achieved an average of 45 frames per second at these settings, although there was one particular section of the environment when the frame rate dropped into what we would class an ‘unplayable' area. However, 98% of the time, the engine ran well at these settings.
We do believe this game would benefit from some further optimisations.
