It wouldn't be a third-person shooter without some guns, with Returnal throwing players a basic pistol at the start, right through to an insane Electropylon Driver. Each individual weapon has unique traits that can be unlocked with enhanced perks as you push out more damage on your alien enemies. Selene also has a melee weapon that she can use to attack enemies, and destroy resource geodes, or barriers 🔫🔫🔫
Better yet, Returnal's recent Ascension update allows for some awesome (and somewhat old-school) online cooperative multiplayer, which can see you and a friend playing through Returnal's campaign together.
Returnal PC System Requirements
Returnal has built on the foundations of Unreal Engine 4, with the development team at Housemarque building in-house extensions to Unreal Engine 4 for the game, including things like particle systems and volumetric rendering, both of which Returnal heavily rely on 👾👾👾
The game requires a powerful PC if you want to enjoy all of the visual bells and whistles Returnal has to offer, but there's AI upscaling technology in both NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR to help drive those FPS numbers up. There's also a wicked built-in benchmark, which is useful for getting to your designed resolution + frame rate.

Returnal's recommended PC specs for 4K 60FPS with RT enabled sees you needing an Intel Core i9-11900K or AMD Ryzen 9 5900X processor, 32GB of RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT or above.

We were able to drive up all of the in-game graphics settings to maximum, run Returnal at the glorious 4K resolution with all of the Ray Tracing greatness enabled... and maintain 100FPS+ average. This is with NVIDIA DLSS set to "Balanced" so it looked, and ran beautifully. Bloody impressive stuff, to say the least.
