The Frame supports foveated rendering so that will help reduce the requirements a bit. Additionally, while the game looks impressive, it's mostly corridors and the like so it's not doing a huge amount of GPU work.
I might be remembering incorrectly, but didn't the Frame support foviated streaming not rendering? As in, isn't foviated rendering a game specific thing, not a headset specific thing?
It supports both, but yeah, for rendering it will require updates to the game.
The headset has eye tracking to make it possible, but yes, apps have to implement foveated rendering for it to work.
I think it is possible for the VR compositor to do some eye tracking optimizations for the app without the app doing special stuff, but I don't know how much that helps (or if it's even implemented in SteamVR).
