The premise, in the publisher's words

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for AMD Ryzen™ 3 1200 / Intel® Core™ i5-6400, 16 GB RAM and AMD Radeon™ RX 580 / Intel® Arc™ A580 / NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 6GB VRAM. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 45GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Visions of Mana launched on 29 August 2024, within three weeks of Black Myth: Wukong, Star Wars Outlaws, Astro Bot and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 4 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Black Myth: Wukong, Star Wars Outlaws, Astro Bot, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II.
