Newly Revealed The Blood of Dawnwalker System Requirements Call for an RTX 5090 to Max Out 4K Settings

The Blood of Dawnwalker yet has a merchandise date, but developer Rebel Wolves besides released the PC strategy requirements and they're a small extreme.

As has been the inclination for caller games similar Crimson Desert, Rebel Wolves released its PC requirements with a chart, detailing the benignant of hardware indispensable to tally the crippled astatine antithetic resolutions, prime presets, and the people framework complaint for each. These scope from the minimum settings to moving astatine 4K with the Ultra preset.

But, astatine slightest Rebel Wolves astatine slightest acknowledges that Intel GPUs exist.

Running the crippled astatine its minimum settings is beauteous reasonable, lone calling for an RTX 3050 oregon GTX 1070 – but that's conscionable to tally the crippled astatine minimum settings, astatine 1080p and astatine 30fps to boot. If you privation to max the crippled out, you're going to request an RTX 5090, which is the astir costly user graphics paper successful caller history. And alternatively than targeting a precocious 120fps, that's conscionable for 4K 60fps.

To enactment it successful perspective, the RTX 5090 launched backmost successful January 2026 for $1,999, but since past it's exploded successful terms to the constituent wherever you're looking astatine $3,699 connected Newegg — and that's connected the low-end. However, it's important to support successful caput that the show tier that's asking for an RTX 5090 is moving astatine autochthonal 4K, which means nary DLSS oregon FSR. It's precise apt that turning connected immoderate benignant of upscaling volition importantly chopped down connected the GPU load.

It's excessively aboriginal to archer if these precocious demands are owed to optimization issues oregon if the crippled genuinely is that demanding. However, fixed that Rebel Wolves has a batch of CD Projekt Red alumni, it's not that surprising that it's targeting high-end gaming PCs with The Blood of Dawnwalker.

Either way, erstwhile the crippled launches connected September 3, I'll beryllium putting it done its paces connected respective GPUs to spot conscionable however good it runs. Hopefully it makes bully usage of that high-end GPU – The Witcher 3 surely did backmost successful its day.
