NieR Replicant PC Port Report and Performance Review

1080p Performance – 60 FPS is almost too easy

While NieR Replicant’s 60 FPS lock is far from ideal, especially for users of high refresh rate monitors, stable 60 FPS performance is fairly easy to achieve within NieR Replicant. While we did need to utilise Special K to make the game run correctly on our test system, almost every graphics card that we tested was able to run NieR Replicant with relative ease. 

Sadly, graphics cards like AMD’s RX 5500 XT and RX 480 experiences some minor performance dips, the game remained playable at 60 FPS across large sections of the game. Higher-end graphics cards delivered a rock-stable 60 FPS with no major issues. We can really see why AMD’s RX Vega 56 and Nvidia GTX 1070 were selected as the recommended GPUs for NieR Replicant’s PC version.
