GeForce users who plan to get Tekken 7 PC may also download the new Game Ready driver (382.33) released today by NVIDIA via the official website or GeForce Experience software.
This driver provides optimization for Tekken 7 PC as well as Star Trek: Bridge Crew, the VR game by Ubisoft. According to NVIDIA, you'll need a GTX 1080 Ti card to run the game at max settings, 4K resolution and constant 60 frames per second.
To run Tekken 7 at 4K at this level of detail, at a constant 60 FPS, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is required. If your system doesn't sport the world's fastest gaming GPU, don't despair: Anti-Aliasing, Effects, Shadows, Post-Process Effects, and Motion Blur can all be dialed back to give your system enough frames for an excellent experience. Or you can try the "Dynamic Adjustment" setting, which will dynamically raise and lower the quality of settings as you play to ensure a smooth, consistent 60 FPS is achieved.
This recommendation is backed-up by our own testing, which shows the GeForce GTX 1060 maintaining a rock-solid 60 FPS at max settings at both 1920x1080 and 2560x1440. With the game being designed around 60 FPS gameplay, having a consistent level of performance is crucial, especially when playing against others online - low FPS and high frametimes will increase the time it takes for actions to be registered and displayed, and if your opponents aren't having those issues they'll have a significant advantage.
The one and only gameplay video of Tekken 7 PC running at 4K@60FPS was provided by NVIDIA's own YouTube channel last year. You can watch it below.
We posted a hands-on preview of Bandai Namco's fighting game a couple weeks ago; you can find it here. The game will be out on June 2nd for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
