Bandai also gives a 1080p/30 fallback: Intel i5-8400 or Ryzen 3 3300X with GTX 1060 6 GB, RX Vega 56 8 GB, or Arc A750 8 GB. For 1080p/60 in Quality mode, it recommends the stronger listed CPU plus RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6800 graphics.
These are publisher targets, not our own benchmark. A machine near the boundary can still vary with drivers, background load, cooling, and a game update. Start with the mode attached to your hardware tier instead of assuming the word “recommended” means maximum settings.
