BioShock 2 was released in 2010. No published benchmark of BioShock 2 is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists NVIDIA 7800GT 256MB graphics card or better, ATI Radeon X1900 256MB graphics card or bette… as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today.

Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for BioShock 2, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.

No measured data yet. We have not found a published benchmark of BioShock 2 with a source we can link. The figures below come from our model and carry a ±30% band. How the estimate works.
