$24.99

REPLACED is a 2.5D cinematic action platformer where you play as R.E.A.C.H. — an artificial intelligence trapped in a human body against its will. Set in an alternate, dystopian 1980s America reshaped by a nuclear catastrophe, the game blends fluid, free-flow combat with intense platforming. Players must navigate the corrupt landscape of Phoenix-City, a walled enclave where human life is traded like currency, to uncover the sinister secrets of the Phoenix Corporation. The game features a striking 'modernized pixel art' aesthetic, utilizing 3D geometry and real-time volumetric lighting to create a gritty, neon-noir atmosphere.

REPLACED Key Specifications

Key Specifications for REPLACED
Specification Detail
Total Wishlists 850,000+
Demo Players 185,000+
Display Aspect Ratio 21:9 (Fixed)
Performance (Xbox Series X) 4K / 60 FPS
Average Playtime 8-12 Hours

info_outline Note: The game utilizes a strict 21:9 cinematic aspect ratio which increases pixel throughput by approximately 31% compared to standard 1080p.

laptop_windows Laptop Performance Note: Due to heavy volumetric lighting and 2.5D physics, laptop users should ensure high TGP overhead to avoid frame-time stuttering observed in early builds.

info_outline GPU TGP: Minimum 85W-100W recommended for stable 60FPS.

info_outline Cooling Thermals: High thermal headroom required; the 2.5D engine is GPU-intensive.

info_outline CPU Power Limits: Standard H-series processors are sufficient; focus is on GPU clock stability.

info_outline MUX Switch Optimus: Recommended to bypass Optimus for reduced input lag in parry-heavy combat.

build Optimization Note: Supports DLSS 3.5 and FSR 3.0. Volumetric Lighting and Motion Blur have the highest performance cost.
