Capcom announced PC players can now test and see if their system can handle Onimusha: Way of the Sword with a new benchmark demo. It is available worldwide. People can find it on Steam or the Epic Game Store and test to see if it will work on their systems. This follows the company already releasing the Minimum, Recommended, High, and Ultra requirements. (This type of test isn’t needed if you plan to play on a console.)
After running and installing the Onimusha: Way of the Sword benchmark demo, you’ll get a score ranging from “Insufficient Performance” (0-4,999) to “Excellent” (25,000+). You’ll be told the FPS you hit and shown details like the graphics preset setting, if ray tracing was on, the DLSS Super Resolution preset, the Upscaling if present, if there’s Frame Interpolation, and details about your CPU and GPU. The FPS sections will go over how it performed both in battle and cinematic scenes, showing both the average and 1% low.
Capcom also shared two screenshots of the benchmark tool, to help us see how information will be presented before we run it. Those images highlight an optimal situation.
