I didnt hear them mention 60 fps, in fact they said they were unable to see fps numbers anywhere during this "hands on". They did say Control "felt playable". This is how you make Control playable on APU https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/control-graphics-perfor... everything on low and you reach 30fps 720p.

I just went back and counted frames. Control was running at 30 fps with drops to ~10 (3 frames of 60 fps video per one screen update).

Hmm interesting. I suppose I could have read too much into the IGN review saying control played at “smooth frame rates”. I suppose we’ll have to wait for proper benchmarks to know for sure the performance.
