Focus Leisure has simply launched the brand new third-person motion sport from Flying Wild Hog, Evil West. Powered by Unreal Engine 4, it’s time now to benchmark it and see the way it performs on the PC platform.
For this PC Efficiency Evaluation, we used an Intel i9 9900K with 16GB of DDR4 at 3800Mhz, AMD’s Radeon RX580, RX Vega 64, RX 6900XT, NVIDIA’s GTX980Ti, RTX 2080Ti, RTX 3080 and RTX 4090. We additionally used Home windows 10 64-bit, the GeForce 526.86 and the Radeon Software program Adrenalin 2020 Version 22.11.1 drivers.
Flying Wild Hog has added a good quantity of graphics settings to tweak. PC players can alter the standard of View Distance, Anti-Aliasing, Publish-Processing, Shadows, Textures, Results and Foliage. The sport additionally helps each NVIDIA DLSS 2 and AMD FSR 2.0. And, as with most video games, DLSS 2 appears higher than FSR 2.0.
Evil West is generally a GPU-bound title which is why received’t have any CPU benchmarks. For what it’s value, we’ve simulated a dual-core system, and that PC system was in a position to push greater than 120fps at 1080p/Epic Settings. So relaxation assured that the sport will run easily on a variety of CPUs.
At 1080p/Epic Settings, most of our GPUs have been in a position to present a relentless 60fps expertise. The one GPU that would not come near such a factor was the AMD Radeon RX580. It’s additionally value noting that although the sport makes use of the DX11 API, it runs nice on AMD’s {hardware}.
At 1440p/Epic Settings, our high 4 GPUs have been in a position to present framerates increased than 100fps. And as for native 4K gaming, our NVIDIA RTX3080, RTX 4090, and AMD RX 6900XT have been in a position to run the sport easily.
Graphics-wise, Evil West appears okay-ish. We’ve seen some complaints about its visuals however, to be sincere, we’ve seen video games that look far worse than it. And, opposite to those different video games, Evil West does at the least run properly. One factor to notice is that the sport has some traversal stutters. They don’t seem to be that annoying however a few of you’ll positively discover them. Fortunately, the sport doesn’t have any shader compilation stutters.
All in all, Evil West will run easily on a variety of PC configurations. The sport is not going to impress you with its graphics, so don’t anticipate a visible powerhouse (or a sport that pushes Unreal Engine 4 to its limits). In any case, it is a double-A sport from a in some way small studio. Moreover, Evil West can not match the graphics of Flying Wild Hog’s earlier title, Shadow Warrior 3. No matter that, although, its visuals are above common and it doesn’t require a beefy PC system to run!
