• OFFICIAL AND EXTRAPOLATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for FEROCIOUS. This information is based on the official PC specifications from developer OMYOG, adapted to the requested JSON structure. As a survival FPS built on the Unity Engine, the requirements are moderate but have increased during development. Laptop and future-generation GPU listings are extrapolated based on performance benchmarks.
• Laptop Performance Note: Laptop versions of the listed desktop GPUs require comparable performance. For a fast-paced FPS like FEROCIOUS, maintaining a high and stable framerate is key, making a laptop with a strong CPU and a well-cooled, high-TGP GPU very important.
• Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: A high TGP is essential to ensure the GPU can consistently deliver high framerates without throttling during intense firefights with dinosaurs and mercenaries.
• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: The game's action-packed sequences can put a sustained load on components. A good cooling system is necessary to prevent thermal throttling and ensure consistent performance, which is critical for survival.
• Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Strong single-core CPU performance is important for processing player inputs and AI with minimal delay. Adequate power delivery to the CPU is key.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended to minimize system latency, providing a tangible advantage in a fast-paced shooter where reaction time is critical.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: The game does not have official integrated support for upscaling technologies like NVIDIA DLSS or AMD FSR. Performance is based on native resolution rendering. Players must rely on driver-level solutions or third-party tools if they wish to use these features.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Performance is most affected by settings like Shadow Quality, Texture Quality, and Anti-Aliasing. Given the dense jungle environments, foliage and view distance settings will also be demanding.
• Game Name: Ferocious

• OFFICIAL AND EXTRAPOLATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for Rage 2 (Released May 2019). This information is based on official Minimum/Recommended PC specifications from Bethesda Softworks and includes extrapolated tiers for higher performance targets, adapted to the requested JSON structure for a May 2025 context. Laptop GPU mentions for RTX 50 series are speculative and represent overkill for this title.
• Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs require comparable performance, dependent on TGP (Total Graphics Power) and cooling. Rage 2 is moderately demanding; most modern gaming laptops should run it well, but good TGP and cooling ensure smoother high-framerate gameplay.

• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Good cooling is beneficial for maintaining stable performance during extended gameplay sessions.
• Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Adequate CPU power ensures smooth gameplay, though Rage 2 is generally more GPU-bound at higher settings.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus can reduce latency and improve framerates.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: The game features an internal resolution scaling option. It does not natively support advanced upscaling technologies like NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, or Intel XeSS through official patches.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Texture Detail, Shadow Quality, Geometric Details, Anti-Aliasing, Anisotropic Filtering, SSR (Screen Space Reflections), and FOV significantly impact performance. The internal resolution scaler can be used to improve framerates.
