Graphics Preset Naming Discrepancy
The current Steam store page lists the recommended spec target as “Medium preset.” However, the July 10, 2026 press release referenced a “Balanced preset” for 1440p/60 FPS. It is unclear whether “Medium” and “Balanced” refer to the same setting or if the naming changed between press materials and the final release.
