So, how do you play
Beast of Reincarnation on a low-end PC?

Honestly, without touching your PC. Beast of Reincarnation drops you into a shifting, post-apocalyptic Japan: real-time biome changes, boss fights that punish anything short of a recent RTX card. A machine that handles all of that smoothly costs well over a thousand dollars, and you replace it every few years. Or skip the upgrade and stream a real gaming PC instead. Shadow PC gives you Windows 11, your own Steam library, your own save file. The full game, on the low-end PC you already own.

Why Shadow PC is the best PC to play Beast of Reincarnation

1. Day-one access, without the GPU upgrade

Beast of Reincarnation launches August 4, and Shadow PC gets you there without spending a cent on new hardware. A dedicated NVIDIA RTX GPU runs the game at the settings a fresh gaming rig would, already installed and ready before launch day. Power gives you 20GB of VRAM and 28GB of RAM, streamed straight to the low-end PC you already own. Nothing to order, nothing to assemble.

2. Every shifting biome, maxed out

Stream from a real RTX-powered Windows PC, straight to your screen. Full settings, smooth frame rates, every shader on. Watch wastelands fold into dense forest in real time, and every vine tendril in Emma's hair render in full detail as she and Koo cut through the Blight. The full vision Game Freak built, native to the screen you already own.

3. Built for the low-end PC you already have

No assembly. No new graphics card. No driver updates to chase. Shadow PC ships ready and stays current: GPU drivers, Windows patches, launchers, all kept fresh on our side. Plug in your mouse, keyboard, headset and controller, and a PlayStation or Xbox pad pairs in seconds for Koo's command menu. Wi-Fi 6 or Ethernet recommended. Beast of Reincarnation runs great on what you already own, thanks to Shadow PC.

FAQ

What is Shadow?

Shadow is a complete Windows gaming PC fully hosted in the cloud. It’s the only virtual machine whose performance rivals that of a local PC. And unlike cloud-gaming services, you can install and run any game, app, or software: there’s no restricted catalog.

Can I install any software on my Shadow PC?

Your Shadow is a true professional Windows workstation. Install everything you need*: Adobe Suite, CAD tools, development IDEs, etc.

How weak can my PC be?

How do I access my Shadow PC?

For each device of your choosing, you can download the Shadow PC software client for free; in particular, this will allow you to test the browsing quality and adjust your video quality settings to the highest resolution, such as 4k. When you need to quickly access your environment and files via a new device or a workstation that's limited in terms of software installation, you can now directly access your Shadow PC via a browser. No installation required, it's quick and easy: Just head to the pc.shadow.tech web page!

Does Shadow handle 4K?

Yes, Shadow does not limit the resolution, allowing you to run Windows, your games, and software in 4K UHD.
