STALKER 2: the minimum and recommended requirements for the PC version

Let’s analyze together the minimum and recommended requirements for the PC version of STALKER 2, the title of GSC Game World exclusive to Microsoft

The Microsoft / Bethesda conference of the just concluded E3 2021 was, by popular acclaim, the best of the entire event, along with probably that of Nintendo. The collaboration between the two companies, obviously resulting from the acquisition of Zenimax by the Redmond company, promises great things in the future. Starfield, for example, will be completely exclusive to the Xbox ecosystem, even reaching day one on the Xbox Game Pass, a service that takes over, day after day, increasingly gargantuan dimensions. During the E3 conference, however, we were able to see another of the Microsoft exclusives at work: STALKER 2.

Through the trailer shown on the conference stage we had the opportunity to see the improved graphics engine at work that will be used to bring the Mexico of STALKER 2 to life. The video highlighted how much GSC Game World wants to exploit the potential of next generation consoles, starting to squeeze them at full speed. In conjunction with all these new features, the minimum and recommended requirements for the PC version of the title were also shown. And we assure you that, in this case, talking about “minimum” is really difficult. Let’s see them together!
