Phantom Blade Zero Uses Denuvo and Unreal Engine 5, Players Worry About Performance Optimization

"Phantom Blade Zero" is now available for pre-order on Steam. The Standard Edition is priced at 268 CNY. The Steam store page indicates that the game will launch with Denuvo DRM.

Denuvo DRM has always raised performance concerns among players. Considering this title is built on Unreal Engine 5, the combination of UE5 and Denuvo may lead to certain performance optimization issues or stuttering.

According to the official PC specifications, the recommended setup includes an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT graphics card, 16GB of RAM, and an i5-10600K CPU, allowing for 2K/60FPS gameplay with upscaling enabled, which sounds very promising.
