Konami has delivered some PC requirements for PES 2015, which, while not as undemanding as the ball and some posts required for a real game of football, are nonetheless quite forgiving. They were announced via the official twitter account for PES 2015 and are as follows:
You ask, We listen! Here are the PC requirements for #PES2015! You saw it here first! pic.twitter.com/2Q5sDl68QN

Just in case that twitter image doesn’t show up, here they are in text form as well:
Minimum:
OS: Windows 7 SP1 / Vista SP2 (it’s confirmed in the twitter replies that Windows 8.1 is fine too)
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8 Ghz (AMD Athlon II x2 240 or similar)
RAM: 1GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce7800 / ATI Radeon x1300 / Intel HD Graphics 2000 (DirectX 9.0 compatible card with 512MB of VRAM)
Hard Drive Space: 8GB
Wow, I haven’t seen some of those items listed in a good number of years. An ATI x1300! Anyway, on to the recommended …
Recommended:
OS: Windows 7 SP1 / Vista SP2 (again, Windows 8.1 is apparently fine too)
Processor: Intel Core i3 530 (AMD Phenom II x4 925 or similar)
RAM: 2GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce7950 / ATI Radeon HD 2400 / Intel HD Graphics 3000 (DirectX 9.0 compatible card with 1024MB of VRAM)
Hard Drive Space: 8GB
If Konami hadn’t already told us that the PC version is going to held back in comparison to the PS4 and Xbox One versions, these specs would be a smoking gun. It’s a shame, because with FIFA 15 being somewhat disappointing on PC this year PES 2015 could perhaps have made some real inroads. But PC players are unlikely to embrace getting a “hybrid” version of the game.
In addition to the system specs, Konami has released a new trailer featuring the previously announced Brazilian domestic team licenses.
