The publisher's minimum for DEATH STRANDING 2: ON THE BEACH is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660, AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB with Intel Core i3-10100, AMD Ryzen 3 3100, and the recommended hardware is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, AMD Radeon RX 6800. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 4070 Super does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 5090 at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
Open world and story games are limited by the graphics card in busy areas and by video memory in new locations. If you see stutter when you enter a new area, lower the texture setting a step. Turn on upscaling if the game offers it.
