"Kingdom Come Deliverance" has delivered, not just in story and gameplay, but also in terms of graphics as the game has now been hailed as one of the most graphically advanced and demanding games.

This makes it the successor to the 2007 first-person shooter "Crysis" that was notorious and celebrated for its state-of-the-art graphics, which at that time no other hardware could run at its best. This was also apparent with "Kingdom Come: Deliverance's" system requirements that required at least a high-end NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 for the game to be played at 1,080p resolution with ultra graphics settings, and even then it still stutters in performance.

According to PC Gamer, the latest and most popular mid-range recommendation for graphics cards, the GTX 1060, which is also the recommended video card for "Kingdom Come: Deliverance," is actually not enough for the game's ultra settings, particularly in towns where the sheer number of nonplayer characters (NPCs) will cause performance issues and may overwork the computer's hardware.

The gaming website apparently did the benchmark in the starting town of the game and did it with a wide range of graphics cards from the budget-level GTX 1050 to the ridiculously high-end GTX 1080 Ti, and their Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Radeon counterparts. They also tested with two brands of central processing units (CPUs) AMD and Intel with varying tiers as well.

From this, it is apparent that the game will require at least a GTX 1080 and its AMD Radeon equivalent in order for the game to be played with a smooth frame rate of 60 frames per second (FPS).

With that said — although this may all just be due to performance and optimization problems, which the developers of the game have yet to fix — the game is reportedly full of bugs and performance and stability problems. This may be normal since it was just released and still has a lot of updating to undergo. It remains to be seen though whether this will improve in the future.
