Frame-Gen to 30fps? Lego Batman’s “Bizarre” PC Specs Sheet Is a Case Study in How Not To Market a Game

The PC system requirements for the upcoming Lego Batman game indicate that the recommended settings and 4K configurations aim for a smooth 60 frames per second (fps) experience with frame generation technology enabled. The base frame rate is expected to be around 30fps, an improvement over the 15fps baseline. Major graphics card manufacturers suggest a base frame rate of 45-60fps for showcasing frame generation capabilities. Critics note that recommending older CPUs and GPUs may mislead gamers regarding compatibility. A native 30fps is considered the minimum standard, with expectations for mainstream hardware to achieve near 60fps using technologies like FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), Intel's Xe Super Sampling (XeSS), or Nvidia's Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS). The game is set to release on May 22nd.
