About

Psychonauts 2 is a colorful platform-adventure game from 2021 that blends exploration, combat, and creative level design into a unique experience. You'll control Raz, a young psychic agent, as you dive into imaginative mental worlds using psychic abilities like telekinesis and pyrokinesis. The game's quirky visuals and inventive gameplay made it a standout title in the action-adventure genre.

PC performance-wise, Psychonauts 2 is quite accessible and won't demand top-tier hardware. An entry-level GPU with a benchmark score around 3428 handles the minimum requirements, paired with 8 GB of RAM and modest CPU performance. You'll see solid FPS on mid-range GPUs across various graphics settings, making it an easy benchmark title for testing mainstream hardware configurations.

With an 88/100 rating, Psychonauts 2 offers a compelling experience for adventure and platformer fans. If you enjoy creative level design and psychic-themed gameplay without extreme performance demands, this is definitely worth playing.

Performance profile

Released in August 2021, Psychonauts 2 targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

Psychonauts 2 is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Psychonauts 2; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

Razputin Aquato, trained acrobat and powerful young psychic, has realized his life long dream of joining the international psychic espionage organization known as the Psychonauts! But these psychic super spies are in trouble. Their leader hasn't been the same since he was kidnapped, and what's worse, there's a mole hiding in headquarters. Raz must use his powers to stop the mole before they execute their secret plan--to bring the murderous psychic villain, Maligula, back from the dead!
