Many do, especially at higher resolutions.

I doubt the rest of the system will be able to do these high resolution versions. It's basically a console, not a gamer PC.

Especially if you do stuff like "AI" upscaling, frame generation, and raytracing.

I don't think there is any reason a game _needs_ more. I don't think there is any gameplay experience that couldn't be enjoyably delivered on this hardware. And it's a massive disappointment that minimum requirements bloat has been out of control lately.
With how PC part prices have exploded after AI data center buying, I think we will see developers suddenly discover that you don't actually need half these specs to run games.
