Despite the fact that this game is targeting next-gen consoles, the requirements are fairly manageable. Even in the recommended settings, you only need something like a GTX 770. You also don’t need a powerful processor to get in, but something like an i5-4430 is required to max it out. The game does, however, require 80 GB of free space. You also need 8 GB of RAM for it to run properly.
