System requirements are crazy

Minimum system req is higher then whats inside next gen consoles lol. Don't support this garbage.

I have a 3080 ti and a 12700k and these are the recommended specs for medium high settings at 1440p ? Yeah, no. This just came off my wishlist.

[Hwoarang45]

Lmao such an ugly looking game required rtx2080 super on medium in fullhd? Lmao try maybe optimized your game. Guess they fail to use Lumen successfully in handling Unreal 5 lightning bug, one reason all dev now having a nightmare dealing making it work without randomly failing.

[Rabit]

Requirements are fine second hand Rx 5700Xt cost below $150.

[Fluffy Dragon]

What is wrong? The 5700XT is good for 1080p. So you really only need a RX 6600 or better to run the game. That card can be had for less than $200 used or just over $200 new. Considering a PS5 is $500 and seems to be the baseline that doesn't seem unreasonable?

I don't want to see them complain about sales with these kind of requirements, they are ignoring majority of PC users, good luck on sales with that.

A PS5 is $400. You only need an RX 6600 to run this game at 1080p and that card is under $200 used and just over $200 new.

How is that unreasonable? Like are devs not supposed to make games that target the CURRENT generation of consoles that is years old now? Is the 1060 the baseline forever?

They can make whatever they want, it is their game, just don't complain about sales after, that's all.

Also, current gen consoles can't even use beyond 12gb for VRAM, mostly 10gb, and people starting to talk 16gb of VRAM will be norm and 20gb high end. Eh? I guess it's back to 30fps for shiny "new gen" consoles eh.

Sales will be fine. A 3060 is the most common graphics card on steam and is pretty comparable to a RX 5700XT or 2080 Super. The 3060 is also close to the same performance as a RTX 2060 Super. And a 1080Ti is more powerful.

Basically any 3000 series card better than the 3060 can run the game. Any RX 6000 card better than the 6600 can run the game. The GTX 1080 and 1080Ti are close to a 2080 Super (because than generation was just trash) can run the game. Apparently even the years old mid range RX 5700 XT can run the game. And cards that are slightly worse can still run the game with light up scaling so the 1070, 2060, and so on should be fine too. So who are you leaving out?

People with like a 1060 or worse basically. And at this point…ok? Most Steam users have a better card than that.

[stardust]

nah, not crazy for my 4090, it's gonna eat this game alive lmao

[Mr. No_Effs_Given]

My Voodoo 4 will destroy this one. PCMR FTW.

[50 Cal]

I dont care cause it's not a game for me, luckily. So my 2070 mobile will live to fight another day.

Well they are aware of that that. Here is a direct quote:
“You can see in other fantasy games where they backed off on some of the detail because it wasn’t practical,” Mark says. “We chose not to be practical. But in order to do all this we had to make the hard decision not to support older video cards and the previous generation of consoles."

I'll wait until I upgrade to play this. Currently on a Ryzen 5900x, Rtx 2080 and 48gb ram.

The minimum spec is also for 1080p60, while consoles are almost certainly only going to be at 30fps for this game, or at an even lower render resolution.

Also, I would expect all high-end UE5 games to have similar minimum specs.
