Yesterday we received a new trailer and then a detailed presentation of Bethesda’s space RPG Starfield. And since the game is really close, the system requirements have appeared on Steam.
As for the minimum, you’ll need at least a Ryzen 5 2600X or Intel Core i7-6800K processor, 16GB of RAM, and an AMD Radeon RX 5700 or Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti graphics card.
To meet the recommended requirements, you will need an AMD Ryzen 5 3600X or Intel Core i5-10600K processor, again 16 GB of RAM, and an AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT or Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 graphics card. What resolution and frame rate should I expect with this setup, unfortunately, not mentioned in the table
By far the most interesting information is the fact that the file size says not only that the game takes up a relatively large amount of memory in the form of 125 GB, but, above all, that an SSD is literally required, even for the minimum requirements. Of course, we don’t yet know if the game will run on the HDD at all, but the word “required” is definitely not in vain.
Over the years, we’ve gotten used to the fact that an SSD is always at least recommended, but this is perhaps the first game for which it is absolutely necessary. However, this is quite logical, as this is a game designed exclusively for current generation consoles, which can already benefit from a fast drive, and therefore games are gradually starting to be optimized only for them.
Starfield launches September 6th for PC and Xbox Series X|S. You can pre-order the game here, it will be available in Game Pass on the day of release.
