Platform Performance Report
| Platform | Status | Details |
|---|---|---|
| PC | Solid on modern hardware | The reference platform for IGN's 9/10 review. Turn-based combat runs well; only pre-rendered cutscenes were reported stuttering on high-end machines at launch. |
| PlayStation 5 / PS5 Pro | Performance + Quality modes | PS5 runs a dynamic 1440p target; PS5 Pro uses its own performance / quality settings. IGN's reviewer noted cutscene stutter on both PC and PS5 Pro — gameplay itself was unaffected. |
| Steam Deck | Not recommended | Community testing (rpgsite, 2026-08-26) measured 11–25 FPS at 720p minimum settings with TSR at 25%. The game is officially untested / unverified for Deck. Streaming from a gaming PC is the practical option. |
| ROG Ally (Z1 Extreme) | Playable with compromises | 25W handheld profile: ~30 FPS at 720p low with 70% TSR, or 1080p with 40% TSR. A usable on-the-go experience, though far from the desktop bar. |
Deck and Ally numbers from rpgsite's launch-window benchmark (2026-08-26). IGN's review ran on PC with PS5 Pro check-ins.
Graphics Options That Matter
- TSR / FSR / XeSS / DLSS upscaling
- NVIDIA Reflex low-latency toggle
- Frame generation support
- 21:9 ultrawide resolutions
- HDR output

Performance FAQ
What engine does STAR WARS Zero Company run on?
Unreal Engine 5, as confirmed by the publisher and developers at Bit Reactor.
Is Zero Company playable on Steam Deck?
Not comfortably. Early community benchmarks measured 11–25 FPS at the lowest settings with TSR at 25%. Valve has not officially verified it, and rpgsite rated it unplayable in the launch window.
Does Zero Company have PS5 Pro enhancements?
Yes — PS5 Pro uses dedicated performance / quality modes. Early reporting noted pre-rendered cutscenes stutter on both PC and PS5 Pro, while turn-based gameplay ran fine.
Why do cutscenes stutter in Zero Company?
The pre-rendered sequences at 60 FPS were flagged by IGN's review for stutter on PC and PS5 Pro at launch. Bit Reactor has not yet shipped a specific fix; we will update this page when one lands.
What FPS can I expect with the recommended specs?
The official recommendation targets 1440p at 60 FPS on High with an RTX 3080 or RX 7800 XT. Turn-based scenes hold that comfortably; dense battleships and cutscenes are the heaviest load.
