Playstation’s roguelike shooter, Returnal finally made it’s way for a PC release. It was confirmed during last week’s Game Awards show. Now the let’s talk about that ridiculous 32GB requirements.
| Minimum Requirement | |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit (version 1903) |
| Processor | Intel Core i5-6400 (4 core 2.7GHz) or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X (4 core 3.5GHz) |
| Memory | 16GB RAM |
| Graphics | Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB) or AMD Radeon RX 580 (8GB) |
| Storage | 60GB available space |
| Maximum Requirement | |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit (version 1903) |
| Processor | Intel i7-8700 (6 core 3.7 GHz) or AMD Ryzen 7 2700X (8 core 3.7 GHz) |
| Memory | 32GB RAM |
| Graphics | Nvidia RTX 2070 SUPER (8GB) or AMD RX 6700 XT (12GB) |
| Storage | 60GB available space |
Seems at this point people still rocking 16GB of RAM per Steam survey. Since I took out my 2 x 8GB sticks out of my main PC for another built, I don’t think this would be enough to run the game with minimum RAM requirements hitting the threshold.
Not sure the heavy RAM requirement are intended for ray tracing.
