The PC port of Death Stranding is looking good. The former PS4 exclusive title will utilize Nvidia DLSS 2.0 technology. This means that if you have an RTX card you can run the game in 1440p and 4K with ease. DLSS 2.0 is an AI rendering technique based on its predecessor. However, unlike its predecessor, this one actually makes games look clearer and also improves the overall framerate.
"The extra performance Nvidia DLSS 2.0 delivers in Death Stranding allows gamers to unlock the vast graphical potential of the PC platform by increasing the graphics settings and resolution, delivering on the vision we have for the game," Kojima Productions' Akio Sakamoto said in an interview with Gamespot.

Death Stranding was developed using the Decima Game Engine. This same engine was used for Horizon: Zero Dawn, another PS4 exclusive title that is getting a PC release. If the PC port of Death Stranding is amazing then this there is a good chance that the same will be possible for Horizon as well.
