Steam Deck & laptop compatibility

It's important to remember that laptop GPUs are often less powerful than desktop versions with similar naming conventions.
Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut came to PC in May 2024, ported by Nixxes Software and including the Iki Island expansion. Sucker Punch’s open-world samurai adventure arrives with DLSS 3, FSR 3 and XeSS upscaling, ultrawide and even 32:9 support, plus unlocked frame rates. The minimum specifications target 720p at 30 FPS on Very Low and are met by a card around the GeForce GTX 960 class with 8 GB of RAM.
The recommended specifications aim for 1080p at 60 FPS on Medium and call for an RTX 2060 or RX 5600 XT with 16 GB of RAM. An SSD is recommended for the smoothest streaming across the island, and the install needs roughly 77 GB. The port is well optimised and scales smoothly, with the upscaling options providing meaningful headroom for higher resolutions and frame rates on capable hardware. The Director’s Cut also adds the Iki Island story content and supports PlayStation overlay features, and its forgiving minimum bar means even modest gaming PCs can enjoy the open world at lower settings while high-end systems push toward 4K at 60 FPS or beyond.
