Sources checked Nov 6, 2026. Source links appear beside the relevant facts.
Official minimum and recommended specifications
The publisher’s two-column listing provides the hardware baseline; the GOG listing checked on September 15 agrees on these CPU, RAM, GPU, storage and OS values:
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | Intel Core i5-11400F / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X | Intel Core i7-11700K / AMD Ryzen 7 5700X |
| RAM | 16 GB | 16 GB |
| GPU | NVIDIA GTX 1060 / AMD RX 580 | NVIDIA RTX 4060 / AMD RX 7600 XT / Intel Arc B580 |
| Storage | 60 GB SSD | 60 GB SSD |
| Operating system | Windows 10, DirectX 12 | Windows 10, DirectX 12 |

Resolution targets and upscaling
PC Gamer’s transcription of the developer’s final chart distinguishes the following GPU tiers. Balanced upscaling is part of the published targets; these are not native-resolution benchmarks measured by this site.
| Target | GPU options in the reported final chart |
|---|---|
| 1080p Low, 30 fps | GTX 1060 / RX 580 |
| 1080p Medium, 60 fps | RTX 2060 Super / GTX 1070 Ti / RX 5700 / Arc A750 |
| 1440p High, 60 fps | RTX 4060 / RX 7600 XT / Arc B580 |
| 2160p Ultra, 60 fps | RTX 4070 Ti / RX 9070 |
The 4K tier pairs those GPUs with a Core i7-12700K or Ryzen 7 7800X3D in the reported chart. The 1080p60 and 1440p60 tiers use i7-11700K / Ryzen 7 5700X. Check the complete linked chart when comparing a machine; the GPU alone is not enough.

Will your PC run it?
Compare the complete CPU, RAM, GPU, SSD and operating-system requirements, then select the target row relevant to your display. In particular, the RTX 4060 recommended tier corresponds to the reported 1440p High target, not the lower 1080p Medium tier.
Actual performance can vary with settings, hardware and software versions. Meeting a published specification is not a promise of a measured frame rate on your computer.
