When it comes to PC game graphics, 2025 was a great year. We got a lot of amazing-looking PC games. Want to know which ones they are? Let’s take a look.

In this article, we won’t be focusing on overall performance optimization. Instead, we’ll list the games that can greatly impress you with their graphics. As always, we’ll have separate articles for the Best and Worst Optimized PC Games of 2025. Moreover, the following list is in random order.

Cronos: The New Dawn

In September 2025, Bloober Team released its new IP, Cronos: The New Dawn. The game is full of atmosphere, and its environments look incredible. All 3D character models are also highly detailed. This is another game that takes advantage of UE5’s Lumen. As such, it can look consistent at all times.

Hell is Us

Hell is US is a great-looking game from a small studio. Thanks to Lumen, its lighting is amazing and remains consistent at all times, even in shadowy areas. There are some distant pop-ups here and there. However, for a small budget game, Hell is Us looks incredible. This game shows what small studios can achieve with Unreal Engine 5.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Graphics-wise, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 looks amazing. As with the first game, what really stands out here is its world. The environments look absolutely beautiful. The characters also look highly detailed, though they are nowhere close to what we’ve seen in games like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, or Silent Hill f. Thanks to CRYENGINE’s SVOGI, the game’s lighting also feels great. There are some pop-ins in the open-world area, but they are not as annoying as those we’ve seen in other titles.

Dying Light: The Beast

When Dying Light: The Beast came out on PC, I was really disappointed by its graphics. You see, Techland released Dying Light: The Beast without its Ray Tracing effects. As such, it suffered from all the issues that plague all rasterized games. Thankfully, in December 2025, we got the Ray Tracing Update on PC. And while it’s not perfect, it manages to greatly improve the game’s graphics. Thanks to Ray Tracing, Dying Light: The Beast can look better than other games like KCD2 or Battlefield 6.

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers is a game that caught me off guard. Thanks to its Lumen GI, the game world looks amazing. Leenzee has also used a lot of high-resolution textures. There are some minor shadow pop-ins, but they are not THAT aggressive or annoying. As with Hell is Us, this is a great-looking game that shows what small teams can achieve with UE5.

Doom: The Dark Ages

Doom: The Dark Ages looks really amazing on PC with Path Tracing. The only downside here is some low-quality textures. I don’t know why id Software has not released an HD Texture Pack. This is the only area in which this new Doom game can feel a bit dated. Other than that, though, this is a great-looking game.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

Developed by Virtuos Studios, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is one of the best-looking PC games on Ultra Settings. Its environments may be small, but everything in the game looks amazing. The 3D characters, textures, and lighting are all top-quality, making the game’s visuals really stand out and impress PC players. Virtuos Studios was also responsible for Oblivion Remastered. However, MGS Delta: Snake Eater looks far more impressive than it.

Silent Hill f

Now here is the best-looking UE5 game of 2025. Silent Hill f is a graphical powerhouse on PC. PC gamers can enable the game’s hidden “True Epic” settings. With these settings, Silent Hill f looks absolutely gorgeous. With these hidden settings, Silent Hill f becomes a visual showcase. It becomes one of the best-looking games of 2025.

Half-Life 2 RTX Demo

Now here is something that will blow most of you away. In March 2025, Orbifold Studios released a demo for Half-Life 2 RTX. Half-Life 2 RTX will bring real-time Path Tracing to Valve’s classic shooter. Moreover, it will have better 3D objects, high-quality textures, and PBR materials. Once you try the Half-Life 2 RTX Demo, you won’t be able to go back to all the other games. It looks THAT good.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows

At Max Ray Tracing and Ultra High, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows is one of the best-looking games on PC. This is a graphical showcase, and it’s one of the few games that prove how important RTGI is. With RTGI, we get amazing lighting at all times. Without RTGI, the game can look really flat a lot of times. This game shows why RTGI is so important to games that use a dynamic time of day. All characters are highly detailed and the game’s environments are among the best I’ve seen. There is also an amazing weather system and an incredible destruction system. Ubisoft has also implemented an awesome hair-stranding system. Plus, pop-ins are kept to a minimum, and I did not experience any major stutters.
