• Q: What is Hell is Us?
  A: Hell is Us is a single-player, third-person action-adventure with a unique 'no hand-holding' design. Set in a war-torn country beset by a supernatural calamity, players must rely on instinct and observation to explore and survive.
• Q: Is there a map or quest log?
  A: No. A core feature of the game is the complete absence of a map, compass, quest markers, or quest log, forcing players to navigate and solve puzzles using environmental clues and their own memory.
• Q: How does combat work?
  A: It is a tactical, stamina-based melee system. A unique 'Lymbic Pulse' mechanic rewards aggressive play, allowing players to regain health by dealing damage with precise timing.
• Q: Is it a 'Soulslike' game?
  A: While it shares some similarities, such as deliberate combat and a stamina bar, the developers describe it as a tactical hack-and-slash. Key differences include enemies not respawning within a level and the absence of a 'corpse run' to retrieve lost items upon death.

• Q: Is STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor a direct sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order?
  A: Yes, STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is a direct sequel, taking place five years after the events of STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order and continuing the story of Cal Kestis and his crew.
• Q: Do I need to play Jedi: Fallen Order before Jedi: Survivor?
  A: It is highly recommended. Jedi: Survivor heavily builds upon the characters, relationships, and plot threads established in Fallen Order. While there's a recap option, playing the first game provides crucial context and significantly enhances the emotional impact and understanding of the sequel.
• Q: How many lightsaber stances are there in Jedi: Survivor?
  A: There are five distinct lightsaber stances that Cal can master and switch between: Single Blade, Double-Bladed, Dual Wield, Blaster Stance (lightsaber and blaster pistol), and Crossguard Stance (heavy, powerful attacks).
• Q: Is Jedi: Survivor an open-world game?
  A: Jedi: Survivor features several large, semi-open world planets that players can explore. These areas are significantly more expansive than in Fallen Order, with more side content and freedom of movement, but the game still guides players through a main narrative path across these planets. It's more 'wide-linear' with large explorable hubs rather than a completely seamless single open world like some other titles.
• Q: Are there mounts in Jedi: Survivor?
  A: Yes, Cal can tame and ride certain native creatures on planets like Koboh (e.g., Nekko, Spamel) for faster ground traversal and accessing new areas.
• Q: Does Jedi: Survivor have fast travel?
  A: Yes, players can fast travel between discovered Meditation Points within a planet and also use the Mantis to travel between different planets. Some planets also have specific fast travel networks (like Relter glides on Koboh).

Developed on Unreal Engine 4, the game showcases stunning visuals with highly detailed character models, diverse and lush planetary environments, advanced lighting, and spectacular Force effects. Features significant improvements in scope and fidelity over Fallen Order. Ray tracing options are available on PC and current-gen consoles, enhancing reflections and shadows.

• OFFICIAL AND EXTRAPOLATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for Hell is Us. This information is based on the official PC specifications from developer Rogue Factor, adapted to the requested JSON structure. As a visually ambitious title built on Unreal Engine 5, the game is exceptionally demanding, with the developers noting that all performance targets are achieved with upscaling (Unreal's TSR) enabled. 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 graphically intense Unreal Engine 5 game like Hell is Us, a laptop with a high-TGP (Total Graphics Power) GPU and an excellent cooling system is critical to avoid performance dips and maintain a stable framerate.
• Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: A high TGP is essential. The game's reliance on UE5 features like Lumen means a low-power GPU variant will struggle significantly, especially at higher resolutions.
• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Unreal Engine 5 can heavily tax both the CPU and GPU. A robust cooling solution is necessary to prevent thermal throttling during long gameplay sessions and in visually complex areas.
• Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: A strong CPU with good power delivery is important for handling the game's physics, complex AI, and asset streaming without creating a bottleneck for the GPU.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended to minimize system latency. In an action-adventure game with precise combat, reducing input lag is key to a responsive experience.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: The game officially supports NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS, in addition to Unreal Engine's native TSR. The developer has stated that all official performance targets are based on using upscaling, making it essential for achieving playable framerates.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Performance will be most affected by settings related to Unreal Engine 5's features, particularly Global Illumination (Lumen), Shadows (Virtual Shadow Maps), Reflections, and Post-Processing. The game is known to be very GPU-bound.
• Game Name: Hell is Us

• Official PC system requirements from Respawn Entertainment/EA. Performance can vary significantly depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially dense environments or large combat encounters), and background applications. An SSD is MANDATORY. The game is known to be CPU and GPU intensive, particularly at higher settings or with ray tracing.
• Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs will require comparable performance, high TGP (Total Graphics Power), and excellent cooling. **STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is a demanding title on PC; high-end laptop hardware is necessary for higher resolutions and settings, especially to maintain smooth framerates with ray tracing enabled.**
• Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Maximum TGP is crucial for performance.
• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Robust cooling is essential to prevent thermal throttling in this graphically intensive game.
• Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Laptops with sustained high CPU power limits and good single/multi-core performance will benefit.
• Laptop Consideration: R A M Speed Dual Channel: Fast dual-channel RAM (DDR5 preferred for newer systems) is highly beneficial.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: Using a MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended for optimal framerates.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: Supports AMD FSR 2. NVIDIA DLSS support was not native at launch but may have been added via patches or is achievable via mods for some users. Ray tracing is available and very demanding.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Ray Tracing (Global Illumination, Reflections, Ambient Occlusion), Shadow Quality, View Distance, Texture Quality, Effects Quality, Foliage Detail, and Post Processing Quality heavily impact performance. Using upscaling is highly recommended for higher resolutions/settings, especially with ray tracing.
