Codemasters has released F1 22's PC system requirements
Earlier this week EA Sports and Codemasters revealed F1 22, confirming that the game would be launching on PC and console platforms on July 1st. Like its predecessor, F1 22 will be a cross-generational release, which means that the game is designed to scale from last-generation consoles to current-generation consoles and high-end gaming PCs.
Like F1 2021, F1 22 will support Ray Tracing on PC. At this time, Codemasters had not confirmed whether or not their game will support Nvidia's DLSS technology, AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution Technology or Intel's XeSS solution. These three techniques provide PC gamers with resolution upscaling, enabling performance enhancements on supported hardware by allowing lower resolutions to be accurately upscaled to higher ones. This makes demanding screen resolutions like 4K and beyond a lot more achievable on modern gaming hardware.
Unlike prior F1 games, F1 22 will support VR headsets on PC. Sadly, Codemasters has not revealed dedicated VR system requirements for F1 22, though the company could release dedicated VR system requirements before the game launches.
F1 22's system requirements can be split between the game's non-RT (Ray Tracing) system requirements and its ray tracing system requirements. Ray tracing places additional strain on graphics cards, which means that PC gamers require more powerful graphics cards to enable ray tracing.
At this time, Codemasters has not detailed how F1 22 utilises ray tracing on PC. In F1 2021, ray tracing was used to enhanced the game's reflections and shadows. Similar visual enhancements are expected in F1 22.
Below are F1 22's minimum and recommended PC system requirements.
