The reviewers emphasize the high quality of the port and the extremely solid work that developers have put into adapting title to work on PCs. The game offers rich configuration options, enabling us not only to adjust the level of detail or disable additional visuals effects but also to freely set the maximum number of displayed frames per second.
Also noteworthy is full for mouse and keyboard-based controls. In this case, however, some reviewers had some problems with the smooth functioning of the camera. Critics also praise the game's optimization. They emphasize that at the highest settings, the title leaves the console version far behind, which is due to the new details of the environment, such as dynamic and animated vegetation, and for ultrawide monitors.
