Control - Hardware Requirements and Ray Tracing Support
We learned the PC hardware requirements of Control, Remedy Entertainment's latest work, as well as information related to the game's support of the ray tracing technology. The game will go on sale at the end of August, this year. It will only be available on PCs through Epic Games Store.
Control is the latest game of the award-winning Finnish developer Remedy Entertainment. The game was announced at last year's E3 fair and since then has aroused considerable interest among fans of previous works of the team. The Control's page on Epic Games Store, which on PCs will be the only platform selling the game, provides information about its minimum and recommended hardware requirements. In addition to the standard configuration, developers have also included information about graphics cards, which are recommended for playing with ray tracing enabled. The original game engine, called Northlight Engine, supports this extremely spectacular technology, the implementation of which we have already seen in the recently-published gameplay footage.
