Phantom Blade Zero PC Specs Stay Modest, yet an RTX 5080 is the Price of Full Path Tracing at 4K@60FPS

Covered by 4 sources · 4 articles

S-Game has released the full PC system requirements for Phantom Blade Zero, its forthcoming action RPG. The specifications span from budget-conscious 1080p configurations to demanding 4K setups, with the studio introducing an unexpected feature: path tracing support alongside the previously announced ray tracing capabilities. The high-end 4K path tracing tier at 60 frames per second demands RTX 5080-class hardware, while performance figures assume upscaling is active. The publisher hasn't disclosed the game's install footprint, though a solid-state drive is required across all tiers.

TL;DR
  • Path tracing is now confirmed for the PC version, marking a step beyond traditional ray tracing for lighting fidelity.
  • The hardware scaling is broad, allowing entry points at 1080p while reserving the RTX 5080 requirement for maximum visual quality at 4K with path tracing enabled.
  • All stated performance targets rely on upscaling technology, a common approach for managing demanding workloads across GPU tiers.
