Control is a supernatural adventure third-person shooter game developed by Remedy Entertainment. The developers revealed the game on E3 2018 showing an unnamed female protagonist using psychic powers, lifting and throwing a truckload of objects at bad guys. In the E3 2019, Control was looking splendid visually with its RTX trailer. As the game releasing in just a month ahead ( August 27, 2019), Control official system requirements have been revealed on Epic Store. The game also features Nvidia’s Ray tracing support. You may probably need to make your wallets ready for system upgrade as the minimum system requirements you going to see are considerably high.

I doubt the game’s optimization as the specs being drastically high. Quantum break was also developed by Remedy Entertainment which was badly optimized. If the optimization of control is similar to Quantum break, then there’s a possibility that GTX 1060 or RX 580 may run control at 1080p Medium settings, GTX 1070 Ti or RX Vega 56 for 1080p Ultra settings and GTX 1080 Ti/ Radeon 7 for 1440p Ultra settings. As for CPU, 4 core Ryzen 1500X or i5 6600k with GTX 1070 might operate this game at 1080p 60fps.
