💡 Crimson Desert: Huge open world on Pearl Abyss' BlackSpace engine - upscaling is basically required at 1440p and up.

At 1080p expect around 60 FPS, at 1440p about 60 FPS, and at 4K roughly 57 FPS with optimized settings. Crimson Desert doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
