The graphics show a mix of late 90s style visuals that can look modern with ultra settings enabled, featuring impressive shaders and lighting. However, certain models, such as the spider, suffer from poor aesthetics and animation. Overall, the game runs smoothly on high-end hardware.

- “This lighting and graphics (I'm running this on an Alienware Area 51 with Nvidia) and the game handles fine IMO.”
- “Spider model aesthetics from my experience has been very lacking (see rigging and animation).”
