Mouse: P.I. for Hire lands on April 16 across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Steam Deck, and Nintendo Switch 2, and the studio just dropped the performance map.
Here's what you need to know if you're trying to figure out whether your rig can handle it, or if you're stuck choosing between fidelity and frame rate on console.
The install clocks in at 11 GB, which is refreshingly modest in an era when some games demand 150 GB before you've even started the tutorial. For 1440p at 60 fps, a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU paired with an RTX 3060 GPU will do the job. If you're chasing 4K at 120 fps, you'll want a Ryzen 7 5700X3D with an RTX 4070.
Translation: this isn't a game that's going to punish you for skipping the last two GPU generations. Mid-range hardware from the past few years should handle it without breaking a sweat.
On PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the game will run at 4K 60 fps in quality mode, or bump up to 120 fps in performance mode, though you'll sacrifice some resolution to get there. There's no word on PlayStation 5 Pro enhancements, so don't expect any extra visual polish if you're running Sony's upgraded console.
On Steam Deck, the game runs at 800p and 40 fps, perfectly playable for a noir detective adventure on the go. Nintendo Switch 2 owners get a dynamic resolution that scales between 900p and 1260p, with frame rates landing anywhere from 30 to 60 fps depending on which mode you pick.
Mouse: P.I. for Hire won't demand flagship hardware or a storage purge. Whether you're running a respectable desktop, a current-gen console, or a handheld, the studio has tuned the experience to fit, and it's all arriving just as spring gaming season heats up.
