  2. Verified by User:Epicgames4 on 2024-03-04
    Verified on a laptop with a 144.15 Hz monitor using Windows 11 Insider Preview 22635.3212 (ni_release) I’m noting this because when I select 30 FPS, the game locks at 36 FPS instead of 30 FPS.
  3. Verified by User:Epicgames4 on 2024-01-16
    I was able to run the game without problem with this, Checked on Windows 11 Insider Preview 22635.3061 (ni_release).
  4. Verified by User:Epicgames4 on 2024-04-06
    Verified by enabling the "Performance Metrics" option in the AMD drivers, which allows for the display of the API in use on Windows 11 Insider Preview 22635.3350 (ni_release).
