Death Stranding 2 continues to be one of the oddest, strangest, and most astounding games I have ever played, and now I can dive back in again, but this time on PC. After its initial launch on PlayStation 5 last year, Hideo Kojima's latest fever dream is on the way to, dare I say it, the superior platform. This is what you'll need to run the game.

Death Stranding 2 on PC seems to be quite well optimized at a range of different performance levels, surprisingly not even requiring the latest GPUs to hit 4K and 60 FPS.

The PC edition of Death Stranding 2 launches with support for NVIDIA DLSS 4, AMD FSR 4, and Intel XESS 2. Upscaling and frame generation options are available for all options. On top of that, Death Stranding 2 will be the first game to feature support for Pico, or Progressive Image Compositor, which was developed by Guerrilla specifically for the Decima engine, and is the same upscaler used by Death Stranding 2 on PlayStation 5.
