Alan Wake II was released in 2023. We list 21 published FPS results for it from GameGPU, covering 7 graphics cards. Steam lists Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 as the minimum graphics card, a high-end card by today's standards. Against those results our estimate landed within ±30% 20 of 21 times.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Alan Wake II, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
