Crimson Desert publishes full platform specs, from GTX 1060 and RX 5500 XT
Crimson Desert now has one of the broadest official requirements updates we have seen for a single game. The new charts cover PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and even the ROG Xbox Ally lineup. It is hard to recall another requirements update that covered this many systems at once.
PC
On PC, the game starts at an upscaled 1080p 30 FPS target from 900p with a Radeon RX 5500 XT or GeForce GTX 1060, paired with a Ryzen 5 2600X or Core i5-8500. The recommended tier targets 1080p 60 FPS or 4K 30 FPS with a Radeon RX 6700 XT or GeForce RTX 2080 and a Ryzen 5 5600 or Core i5-11600K. At the top end, the Ultra preset targets 4K 60 FPS and lists a Radeon RX 9070 XT or GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, along with a Ryzen 7 7700X or Core i5-13600K.
PC Requirements
ROG Ally X
The base ROG Xbox Ally is listed for 720p 40 FPS using FSR 3 Frame Generation, while the ROG Xbox Ally X is split into three modes. Its Performance mode targets upscaled 1080p 60 FPS from 720p with FSR 3 Super Resolution and Frame Generation, Balanced targets upscaled 1080p 40 FPS, and Quality targets native 1080p 30 FPS. Pearl Abyss is clearly setting expectations across every major platform in advance, and this update stands out simply because of how many different systems it covers in one pass.
ROG Xbox Requirements
PlayStation & Xbox
PlayStation 5 offers 1080p 60 FPS in Performance mode, while Balanced and Quality modes target upscaled 4K at 40 FPS and 30 FPS. PlayStation 5 Pro moves to upgraded PSSR for its upscaled 4K modes, keeps 60 FPS and 40 FPS targets for Performance and Balanced, and raises ray tracing from High to Ultra in Quality mode. Xbox Series X follows a similar layout with 1080p 60 FPS in Performance mode and FSR 3-based upscaled 4K modes for Balanced and Quality, while Xbox Series S is limited to 720p 40 FPS or 1080p 30 FPS with ray tracing disabled.
Console Requirements
Mac
The charts list MetalFX upscale f or macOS 15 and MetalFX upscale plus frame interpolation for macOS 26 and newer. Minimum support starts at M2 Pro, while the Ultra tier lists M3 Ultra and M4 Max for a 4K 40 FPS target on macOS 15, or 4K 60 FPS on macOS 26 and newer. The Mac requirements also show 16 GB of RAM and 150 GB of storage.
