Official specification table. The CPU, GPU, memory, storage and target-mode rows below reproduce the Steam store requirements. Practical recommendations are kept separate from those published facts.
Official PC requirements
| Spec | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| OS | Windows 11 | Windows 11 |
| CPU | Intel Core i7-9700K / AMD Ryzen 3 3300X | Intel Core i7-10700K / AMD Ryzen 5 5600G |
| Memory | 8 GB RAM | 8 GB RAM |
| GPU | Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB / AMD Radeon RX 5700 8 GB / Intel Arc B580 12 GB | Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB / AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12 GB |
| DirectX | Version 12 | Version 12 |
| Storage | 30 GB available space, SSD required | 30 GB available space, SSD required |
What each target means
The Steam listing ties the hardware targets to in-game modes rather than a vague "minimum" label:
| Target | Hardware class | Expected mode |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p / 30 fps | Intel Core i5-8400 or Ryzen 3 3300X, with GTX 1060 6 GB / RX Vega 56 8 GB / Arc A750 8 GB | Lower fallback target listed in Steam's additional notes |
| 1080p / 60 fps | Minimum table GPU tier | Performance mode |
| 1080p / 60 fps | Recommended table GPU tier | Balanced mode |
| 1080p / 60 fps | Intel Core i7-10700K or Ryzen 5 5600G, with RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB / RX 6800 16 GB | Quality mode |
Version context. Day 1 update Ver.1.0.3 changed combat balance and invulnerability behaviour, not the published PC specification table. Performance targets here remain the storefront targets rather than a claim about every hardware configuration.
The Denuvo activation limit, explained
The listing specifies a 5-system activation limit — the game can be activated on up to five different machines within the DRM's rolling window. For a single gaming PC this is irrelevant. It matters if you rotate between desktop, laptop, handheld PC and cloud rigs: hardware changes can count as new activations. Plan your install footprint accordingly.
Steam Deck and handhelds
The Steam listing cited here does not advertise a Deck Verified or Playable rating. On paper, the official 1080p targets sit above the Deck's native hardware class, while the controller-native interface and performance mode are favorable design signals rather than proof of a stable handheld target. For a handheld-only purchase, rely on a measured test that states device model, resolution, preset and frame cap—not on the desktop table alone.
How to compare your PC with the table
Match the whole system, not only the graphics card. The published targets pair a CPU, GPU, memory amount and rendering mode; an RTX 2060 paired with a much older processor or a nearly full hard drive is not equivalent to the stated minimum target. Check that Windows 11 is current, that the game is installed on an SSD with room for updates, and that the GPU has the listed or greater video memory before treating a benchmark from another machine as a prediction for yours.
Resolution and frame cap are part of the answer. The store's 1080p/60 targets do not automatically imply 1440p, ultrawide or 4K performance, and a 30 fps fallback target is not the same as a guarantee that every busy combat scene will hold that frame rate. Start from the listed mode, keep the game and graphics driver current, then adjust one variable at a time. If performance is inconsistent, record the scene, resolution, preset and frame cap before deciding whether CPU, GPU, storage or a patch is the likely constraint.
Practical pre-purchase checklist
- Confirm the operating system: the official listing names Windows 11, not an older Windows release.
- Check available SSD space: reserve more than the listed 30 GB so that the base install, updates and shader data are not competing for the last free space on the drive.
- Compare exact GPU models and VRAM: similar model names can have different memory configurations; use the listed VRAM figure as well as the generation.
- Use the right target: choose the 30 fps fallback, Performance, Balanced or Quality line that matches the experience you expect, rather than treating “recommended” as a universal setting.
- Account for activation changes: if you move between several PCs or change major hardware frequently, read the Denuvo activation information before installing on every machine.
These are planning steps, not a substitute for testing a purchased copy within the applicable store policy. Hardware support, drivers and game builds change over time, so the Steam page remains the primary source for the current published requirement. When the publisher revises that table, this page should be updated rather than relying on an old screenshot or a cached search result.
Should you buy on PC or console?
If you meet the recommended spec and want Steam Cloud or achievements, PC is the flexible version. If your machine is closer to the 1080p/30 fallback tier and predictable performance matters more than PC features, PS5 or Xbox Series X|S is the simpler recommendation. Install current game updates before comparing combat feel or difficulty with demo footage.
Platform choice should also account for where your save lives. Demo-to-retail transfer guidance is platform-family specific, and this page does not assume cross-platform carry-over. Read Release Date & Launch Info for the version context, then consult the store page for your region before buying an edition or an add-on. For a functional issue after installation, use Known Issues rather than using a specification page as support advice.
