In a very welcome move, the “minimum” and “recommended” both include more detailed specifics about what those words actually mean. Exactly the sort of thing I was asking more developers to do in my recent Quantum Break system specs article. More of this, please!

  • OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or later
  • Processor: Intel Core i3-4130 or equivalent with 4 hardware threads
  • Memory: 6GB RAM
  • Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB, AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB, or equivalent DX11 compatible GPU with 2GB of memory
